A.D. 1036 This date is from a photograph in my possession of an unpublished copper-plate grant from Hansoţ, in the district of Broach (Bombay presidency), issued by the Chahamāna prince Bhartri-vaddha (Bhartri-vardha) II, a feudatory of king Nägavaloka.
From the Jaina Hari-nania Purana (Bom. Gazetteer, Vol. I, part II, p. 197).
The Prabhavaka.charita speaks of the death of king Nägivaldks of Kanya-kabja, grand father of Rhoja, ne taking place in Vikrama year 890 (A.D. 888-34) (Nirnaynigara Press ed., p. 177, verson 720-725). The Nägivalóks of the Prabhāvaka-charita can be identified with no other than Näga-bhata II. of Kanadj, and the date seems to be accurate, as the first known date of Bbõja I. is A.D. 848.
This date of Rajya-pala is given by Al-Utbi in his Tarikh-4-Yamini (Elliot's Hist., Vol. II, p. 45), whore be speaks of Rai Jaipal as the ruler of Kanadj when Sultan Mahmud of Ghaxn invaded it. He was killed the next year (A.D. 1019) by the Chandēla prince Vidya-dbars, son of Gands, and Trilochana-páls succeeded him. . The dotted line in the table indicates a successor, not necessarily a son.
