### [c22.92](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.altekar-1934.c22.92)

While describing the guild members who had come to witness the wrestling between Kansa and Kṛṣṇa, \*Harivans'a\*⁶⁴ refers to their banners bearing upon them the representations of the implements of their different industries. That the association of particular banners with particular devices mentioned in the \*Harivans'a\* is not fictitious is proved by the Belgamve and Kolhapur inscriptions referred to above, which refer to the banner of the Vīra-Balanjus, and describe it as bearing the device of a hill. These banners were probably carried at the head of the caravans or militias of the guilds, as was later the custom of the European companies in India.⁶⁵
