THE INDIAN ANTIQUARY
[ DECEMBER, 1928
worn-out gates of the imperial city and in farther corners the armies of Islam were sharpening their swords for the final stab. Nor are we to assume that after Vinayakapala (I) the dy. nasty was divided into two houses, one descended from Vinayakapala (I) and the other from Mahilapala (I) alias Bhoja (II) alias Kșitipala. For, there is no evidence whatsoever to show that the Pratihara empiry was ever divided between two rival houses.
