According to Firishtah’s chronology there was a gap between Kapilēndra’s death and the actual occupation of the throne by the next member of his family; for the chronicler, writing of A.D. 1471-2, says that when the King of Orissa died the throne was seized by Mangaḷa, and on the representation of the late king’s cousin ‘Ambur Ray’ Muḥammad Bāhmanī sent an army, defeated Mangaḷa, and placed Ambur Ray on the throne. This matter requires investigation, for which the present work is no place.
