The historical evolution of the University of Toronto;

Trinity College of the University of Toronto (one of the locations of Harry Potter) was established in 1827 under the Royal Charter issued by George IV, England. It was one of the earliest institutions of higher learning in colonial Canada. It was originally called "King's College" until 1849, when it left the Anglican Church and became a secular university, and its current name was changed. Influenced by the British university system, the University of Toronto is one of the few universities in North America that implements the independent college system, and each college enjoys a high degree of autonomy.

The area where the three campuses of the University of Toronto are located has a history of human activities for thousands of years. About 5000 years ago, the water surface reached the height of Lake Ontario. Except for the lake reclamation in the19th century, the main rivers Rough, Don, Humber and Credit are constantly flowing into the north bank of the lake, and the coastline used to be almost exactly the same as what you saw.

It was the ancestors of the first nation who first explored the lakeshore today. They make a living by hunting, fishing and picking finished products. But they moved too often, and there were not many records. About 1600 years ago, people living on the north shore began to rely on corn and other crops, thus leading a new and more stable life. Others live in the middle of the north shore. Their language may be named Toronto-a tree stands in the water.
