Vikramaditya, is equivalent to A. D. 1067, in the very middle of the 

 reign of Anang Pal 2nd. 



35. According to the traditions of the people, which I managed to 

 pick up, the following were some of the numerous sons of Anang 

 Pal:— 



1st. — Tej Pal, or Tejran, who founded Tejora between Gurgaon 

 and Alwar. In the Bikaner manuscript this prince is called Vijaya 

 Sal, or Pal. 



2nd. — Indra Raj, who founded Indragarh, 



3rd. — Bang Raj, who founded two places named Tdrdgarh, of which 

 one is said to be near Ajmere. 



4th.' — Achat Raj, founded Aeheva, or Achner, between Bharatpur 

 and Agra. 



5th. — Draupada, who is said to have lived at Asi, or Hansi. 



6th.— Sisu Pdl, who founded Sirsa, and Siswal, said to be same as 

 Sirsi Patau. 



If these traditions are of any value, they will enable us to judge of 

 the extent of Anang Pal's dominions by the names of the places which 

 were founded or held by his sons. According to this test, his 

 dominions extended from Hansi on the north to Agra on the south; 

 and on the western side they reached nearly as far as Alwar and Ajmer* 

 To the eastward they were most probably bounded by the Ganges^ 

 beyond which the whole country was then held by the Katehria 

 Eajputs. I see nothing improbable in these traditions of the Tomar 

 possessions, and I am therefore willing to accept them as valuable 

 additions to our present scanty knowledge of Hindu history. 



36. There are traditions of a similar kind regarding the sons of 

 another Tomar Raja, called Kama, Pal ; but his name is not to be 

 found in any of the lists. As, however, one of his sons was called 

 Bach Deo, a name which is given in three of the lists as Vacha Raja, in 

 a fourth list as Vijaya Raja, and in two others as Bibasa Pdla, I think 

 that we have some grounds for identifying Kama Pal with the father 

 of Vacha Deva of the lists, more especially as the lists differ so much 

 amongst themselves regarding the name of the father. He is variously 

 called Adereh 9 TTdi-Ray, Indrajit, and Chamra Pal, of which the first 

 three names are evidently only various readings of one original name. 

 The sons of Kama Pal, according to the popular tradition, were the 

 following ;- —
