The First Buddhist Council took place at the Sattapanni Rock Cave in
Rajagaha now Rajgir, India. 3 months after the Buddha's final Nibbana,
500 Arahants met here to recite the Dhamma and the Vinaya, so that it
could be passed on to future generations exactly as spoken by the historical

Buddha Gotama and his disciples. This council was headed by Mahakassapa

Thera <http://what-buddha-said.net/library/DPPN/maha/maha_kassapa_th.htm>
and it lasted 7 months. It established the original authentic Tipitaka:
