As I shall prove in detail, this long list, to represent the truth 
as concerns Central India, must submit to a deduction of at least 
fourteen persons. No. 1 is a duplicate of No. 23 ; Nos. 2 — 10, 
nine princes, as Professor Lassen counts them, have nothing to do 
with Malava; No. 19 is, most likely, a pure fabrication; Nos. 20 and 
22 are certainly of that character ; and Gondala, No. 21, was we know 
not what. Other retrenchments will be spoken of in due course. . 
* Rightly, Nagabliata. Again the Professor has taken an unconfessed liberty, 
t Son of Mahendrapala, No. 7. No. 9 is nothing. Professor Lassen has here 
been misled by bad decipherment. Yinayakapala was half-brother of Bhoja II. 
Till about A. D. 850.
