The Rashtrakutas and their Times c11.s1.22

c11.s1.22

While Indra was himself engaged in the north, his generals in the south were equally active. A record of one of them, Srīvijaya, has been discovered at Danavulapadu in Cudappah district. Although a pious Jain, Srīvijaya was a powerful general and claims to have defeated his master's enemies.⁴⁸ Another record from the same locality informs us that this general was also a poet. We must not, however, confound this poet-general Srīvijaya with Srīvijaya quoted in Kavirājamārga; for the latter flourished at least a century earlier than the general of Indra.
