The chronology of the Eastern Ganga kings is in a confused state. 

 The object of this article is to clear this confusion as far as possible 

 with the help of inscriptional and other records. 



The fourteen Eastern Garjga kings from Codagarjga to Nrsimha 

 Deva IV have been taken in hand one by one, all the date references 

 noted in a tabular form, the first and last year deduced, the relationship 

 and titles noted, and then all available informations likely to throw light 

 on the chronology have been gathered and discussed. Eighty-one date- 

 extracts of inscriptions have been quoted in the tables, most of them 

 published in full for the first time, besides references to other inscrip- 

 tions in the accounts given below each table. 



The following approximate times of the Orissan Gagga kings have 

 been arrived at : — 



The article ends with a genealogical table of the entire Gagga 

 family from Virasimha, the reputed founder, to Nrsimha Deva IV., with 

 their respective years of reign.
