Krishnarshi gatchha, composed the Hammiramahakāvya and the Rambhāmanjarınātikā. These are some of a few historical works in Sanskrit. In the Hammtramahālāvya the hero is Hammira, but it contains many references to Prithviraja Chohana In the Rambhānanjar, the hero is Jayachandra of Kanoja, but there is not the slightest reference to his Rajasuyayagna, Sanyukta's 'Swayamvara' or his enmity with Prithviraja. From this, Mr. G. E. Ojha concludes that these stories of the Prathurrāgarāso were not known upto V. S. 1440 ( A. D. 1388 ) ( about which date the works were composed ), but were later interpolations.67
