tween the Raja and Sultan-Alla-uddix, which 

 ended in the destruction of her lord, and his son-in- 

 law Ram'ul-Ahsi, a Chauhdn. Ha'mmira, tlie son 

 of the latter, fled from Chaitoi\ sheltered himself 

 among the more mountainous parts of Mexvdr, and 

 maintained his independence as king of that coun- 

 try, and made ^ Sacamhhari the metropolis of his 

 little kingdom. Mtxmr is divided into three parts, 

 Cliaitor*', Carnbher (or Camb/iet'-nere for Cambher-' 

 7iaga7'a) and Mand'akt (or Mand'alica) built by king 

 Manda'lica of the Bhil tribe, and who lived about 

 the year 7^6 f. Cambher is probably the same 

 with 'Sacambhariy which was certainly situated iu

Sultan IVIuhammed K'huni, or the murderer, 

 gave the government of Chaito}\ and Mcwdr, to 

 Ma'la-de'va, a Chauhdn^ and king oi Jalbr : but 

 the latter was unable to reduce Hammira, though 

 he had defeated him, in a bloody engagement, near 

 the sea shore, according to the appendix to the 

 Agni-j)urdna. He then made peace with him, and 

 gave him his daughter in marriage J ; but, after his 

 death, PIammira murdered all his sons, and usurped 

 the kingdom. This happened, according to the ap- 

 pendix to the Agni-purdria^ in the year of Vicra- 

 ma'ditya 1490, which is impossible ; and we must 

 read 1390, or A. D. 1334; for Sultan Muhamimed 

 began his reign in 1325, and died in 1351. In that 

 appendix it is declared, that the base murderer was 

 at last defeated and slain, by the joint forces of 

 Secunder, governor of Gdyd, Jala'la, gover- 

 nor of Dilli, and a body of Ya^oanas (Turcomans 

 or Mogols) commanded by Uluc'ha'ga', perhaps 

 for Ulughkha'n, a title of honor sometimes
