________________ SOLANKI PERIOD 325 Systems of Years and Months The above results give certain indications about the prevalence of different systems of years and months in Gujarat during the Solanki period. Indian chronology generally follows the mode of expired years. However, we come across a few dates in current years. Similarly the dates indicate preponderance of Kārttikādi years over Caitrādi ones. The dates in Kutch and probably Western Saurashtra as well indicate the probability of Aşādhādi years in place of Kārttikādi ones. Likewise the dates given above indicate preponderance of the system of Amānta months over that of Pūrnimānta months. The results may be tabulated in different parts as follows : Name of the Region Mode of System of System of expired Kārttikādi Amānta year year month Sārasvata Mandala 64% Aştādaśasata Mandala 88% 66.7% 37.5% (excluding Mt. Abu region) North and North-East Gujarat 81% Central Gujarat 88% 67% 79% South Gujarat 832 East Saurashtra South Saurashtra 92% Central Saurashtra 100% West Saurashtra 67% 100% 100% North Saurashtra 50% Kutch 100% 100%3 Entire Gujarat 77% 61% 2-3.
