585 Prabhākaravardhana, of Thāṇeśar, son and successor of Ādityavardhana, and probably first paramount sovereign of his dynasty; married Yaśomatīdevī. Fought, according to Bāṇa, with the king of Gandhāra and the Hūṇas in the Himalayas, against the king of Sindh in the west, with the Bhīnmāl and Bharoch branches of the Gurjaras, and with the king of Mālava. Sent his son Rājyavardhana, shortly before his own death, against the Hūṇas. Prabhākaravardhana’s daughter Rājyaśrī married the Maukhari Grahavarman, who, shortly after his father-in-law’s death, was attacked and slain by the king of Mālava.—EI. i, 68 ff.
