The
Gwalior Prashasti announces Nagabhata's victory in the following manner:
He crushed the mighty hosts of the mlechchhas
Those foes of godly deeds.
With terror-striking weapons as he stood
He looked like
Him of the four-arms. 2
Nagabhata I founded the Gurjara power which held imperial sway at Kanauj for well-nigh
hundred and fifty years. About A.D. 780 his grandson Vatsaraja ruled at Jhalor while
Varaba or Jayavaraha ruled over the kingdom of Sauryas, which may perhaps be identified
with, Saurashtra.
2 Gwalior Prashasti of Mihira Bhoja (verse 4). |
