It is rather difficult to fix the dates for the predecessors of Kalingarāja, viz., the prince called lord of Tripuri and his father Kõkkala. For, none of the records of this line gives any clue as to the probable duration of the interval between Kalingarāja and his predecessor, the lord of Tripuri.' Divergent views have been expressed regarding the probable identity of Kõkkala, whether he is to be identified with the first or the second king of that name in the main Kalachuri line of Tripuri.' It seems quite certain that he cannot be Kökkala II, since this king who was the father of Gängěyadēva Vikramāditya (c. 1030-1040 A. C.) lived much later than the probable date that can be assigned to Kõkkala, the ancestor of Kalingarāja (c. 990-1015 A. C.) of the Ratanpur
1 Alone of all the inscriptions of the dynasty, the Kharod inscription of Ratnadeva III: Chēdi 933, states that Kalingansipati was one of the 18 sons (born of Kõkkala?). This is evidently a fabrication (above, Vol. XXI, p. 161 and text lines 4-5).
