VICRAMADITYA AND SALIVAHAXA. 139 



also 'Aditya, and Raja-Vicuama, who began his 

 reign in the year 19 1. 



The fourth era is that of Vickam'aditya the son 

 of Gandharupa, whose reign began in the year 441. 



The fifth is tlie appearance of Maha-bhat' or 

 Muhammed; aucl the sixth is the accession of 

 Bhoja, called also Vicramaditya, to the imperial 

 throne. 



The seventh era is the defeat and death of Pi- 

 THAURA in 1192, and that of Jaya-chandka, in

 liege, set up for themselves, in their own country. 

 The first was a rebel of the name of 'Ataca, as seem-

 lasted so many years, and this dynasty was very 

 properly omitted in the Ayin-Acberi. Then comes 

 ouc'h-s'ena, or Sumuc'h-s'ena, with another king 

 called C'ha'dga or C'harga; and these resided at 

 Qhitra-ciit' a in Bundelchand, as asserted in that sec-
