Indraprastha ceased to be a regal abode for eight centuries, when it was re-established by Anangpal,[2.5.27] the founder of the Tuar race, claiming descent from the Pandus. Then the name of Delhi superseded that of Indraprastha. "Sukwanti, a prince from the northern mountains of Kumaun, ruled fourteen [52] years, when he was slain by Vikramaditya;[2.5.28] and from the Bharat to this period 2915 years have elapsed."[2.5.29] Such a period asserted to have elapsed while sixty-six princes occupied the throne, gives an average of forty-four years to each; which is incredible, if not absolutely impossible. In another passage the compiler says: “I have read many books (shastras), and all agreed to make one hundred princes, all of Khatri[2.5.30] race, occupy the throne of Delhi from Yudhishthira to Prithwiraja, a period of 4100 years,[2.5.31] after which the Ravad[2.5.32] race succeeded.” It is fortunate for these remnants of historical data that they have only extended the duration of reigns, and not added more heads. Sixty-six links are quite sufficient to connect Yudhishthira and Vikramaditya. We cannot object to the “one hundred princes” who fill the space assigned from Yudhishthira to Prithwiraja, though there is no proportion between the number which precedes and that which follows Vikramaditya, the former being sixty-six, the latter only thirty-four princes, although the period cannot differ half a century. Let us apply a test to these one hundred kings, from Yudhishthira to Prithwiraja: the result will be 2250 years. This test is derived from the average rate of reigns of the chief dynasties of Rajasthan, during a period of 633[2.5.33] to 663[2.5.34] years, or from Prithwiraja to the present date. Of Mewar 34[2.5.35] princes, or 19 years to each reign. Of Marwar 28 princes, or 23¼     ”        ” Of Amber 29 princes, or 22½     ”        ” Of Jaisalmer 28 princes, or 23¼     ”        ” giving an average of twenty-two years for each reign [53]. It would not be proper to ascribe a longer period to each reign, and it were perhaps better to give the minimum, nineteen, to extended dynasties; and to the sixty-six princes from Yudhishthira and Vikramaditya not even so much, four revolutions[2.5.36] and usurpations marking this period. =Jarasandha.=—The remaining line, that of Jarasandha, taken from the Bhagavat, is of considerable importance, and will afford scope for further speculation. Jarasandha was the monarch of Rajagriha,[2.5.37] or Bihar, whose son Sahadeva, and grandson Marjari, are declared to have been contemporaries of the Mahabharata, and consequently coeval with Parikshita, the Delhi sovereign.
