Rajasthan (India) -- History; Rajput (Indic people) -- History
Son of Jai Singh Solanki, the emigrant prince of Kalyan, who married
the daughter of Bhojraj. These particulars are taken from a valuable
little geographical and historical treatise, incomplete and without
title. [Mūlarāja Chaulukya, A.D. 961-96, was son of Bhūbhata:
Chāmunda, A.D. 997-1010; it was in the reign of Bhīma I. (1022-64)
that Mahmūd’s invasion in A.D. 1024 occurred (_BG_, i. Part i. 156 ff.
164).]
Footnote 2.7.76:
Called Chamund by Muhammadan historians.
Footnote 2.7.77:
[Ferishta i. 61.]
Footnote 2.7.78:
He ruled from S. 1150 to 1201 [A.D. 1094-1143]. It was his court that
was visited by El Edrisi, commonly called the Nubian geographer, who
particularly describes this prince as following the tenets of Buddha.
[He was probably not a Jain (_BG_, i. Part i. 179).]
Footnote 2.7.79:
[The Gujarāt account of the campaign is different (_BG_, i. Part i.
184 f.).]
Footnote 2.7.80:
[Kumārapāla made many benefactions to the Jains (_Ibid._ i. Part i.
190 f.).]
Footnote 2.7.81:
[Ajayapāla succeeded Kumārapāla. Bhima II. (A.D. 1179-1242), called
Bholo, ‘the simpleton,’ was the last of the Chaulukya dynasty, which
was succeeded by that of the Vāghelas (1219-1304). Vīsaladeva reigned
A.D. 1243-61. See a full account, _Ibid._ 194 ff.]
Footnote 2.7.82:
Satranjaya. [_IGI_, xix. 361 ff.]
Footnote 2.7.83:
In 1822 I made a journey to explore the remains of antiquity in
Saurashtra. I discovered a ruined suburb of the ancient Patan still
bearing the name of _Anhilwara_, the _Nahrwara_, which D’Anville had
“fort à cœur de retrouver.” I meditate a separate account of this
kingdom, and the dynasties which governed it.
Footnote 2.7.84:
[Zafar Khān, son of Sahāran of the Tānk tribe of Rājputs, embraced
Islam, and became viceroy of Gujarāt. According to Ferishta, he threw
off his allegiance to Delhi in 1396, or rather maintained a nominal
allegiance till 1403. Ahmad was grandson, not son, of Muzaffar.
(Ferishta iv. 2 f.; Bayley, _Dynasties of Gujarat_, 67 ff.; _BG_, i.
Part i. 232 f.).]
Footnote 2.7.85:
The name of this subdivision is from Bagh Rao, the son of Siddharāja;
though the bards have another tradition for its origin. [They take
their name from the village Vaghela near Anhilwāra (_BG_, i. Part i.
198).]
Footnote 2.7.86:
I knew this chieftain well, and a very good specimen he is of the
race. He is in possession of the famous war-shell of Jai Singh, which
is an heirloom.
Footnote 2.7.87:
Famous robbers in the deserts, known as the Malduts.
Footnote 2.7.88:
Celebrated in traditional history.
Footnote 2.7.89:
Desperate robbers. I saw this place fired and levelled in 1807, when
the noted Karim Pindari was made prisoner by Sindhia. It afterwards
cost some British blood in 1817.
Footnote 2.7.90:
[For another list see _Census Report, Rajputana, 1911_, i. 256.]
