In this connection reference may be made to two eras prevalent in some parts of Bengal during the late medieval period. These are the Balālī San of 1199 A.D. and the Parganātī San of 1202-03 A.D. (or 1201-02 A.D.). They appear to be modifications of the same era, sometimes called by local names such as ‘the San of Parganā Bhuluā.’¹ Probably these eras were counted from the time when the Senas lost wide areas of their dominions in West Bengal and the adjoining region just as the La-sam was counted from the time when they had lost their possessions in South Bihar.
