THE DYNASTIES OF RAJASTHAN
129
Vīryārāma was succeeded by his younger brother Cāmundarāja. The Bijolia inscription also ascribes him as younger brother of Vīryārāma. The word anuja is given for him in the end of the 13th verse. It is also suggested that the word anuja has also to be construed with the first word Cāmunda mentioned in the next verse. Cāmunda is definitely stated in the Pythviräja-vijaya to be the brother of Viryārāma.” He is said in the Prabandha-kośa to have destroyed a Sultan. The Hammira-mahākävya gives the name of that Sultan as Hejama-d-din.
After Cāmunda, in the 14th verse, come in order Rāņakavara Singhat, his brother Dusala and Visala. After him his son Pșthvīrāja and thereafter his son Ajayadeva.
Durlabharāja III: The name of Rāņakavara Singhat, we do not find elsewhere. His successor was his brother Düsala who is called Durlabha or Durlabharāja III in the Pythvīrāja-vijaya and the Hammira-mahākāvya." As to whose son he was, we do not know from the present epigraph. The Pythviraja-vijaya calls him the son of Vīryārāma, but Dr. Bhandarkar regards him as the son of Cāmunda. He is here stated to be the brother of Singhat and if he was the son of Cāmunda as Dr. Bhandarkar believes, then Singhat whose relation with his predecessor is not yet known was also an elder son of Cāmunda.? The Hammira-mahākávya states that Durlabharāja killed Karna in the battles and the Prabandha-kośa relates that Dūsala having tied the king of Gujarata brought him to Ajmer and made him to sell the whey (takram). We, however, have no support for these statements. The Prthvirāja-vijaya on the other hand attributes this war between Udayāditya of Mālava (c. 1059-87 A.D.) and Karna (c. 1064-94 A.D.) in
