And finally, the known chronology of the two houses does not only not go against the proposed connection between them but does support it. Assuming an average reign of 20 years (except where the succession was not from father to son), and working back from the known dates of Kṛṣṇa I, we get the following genealogical and chronological table:—
(1) Durgarāja, c. 570-590 A.D.
(2) Govindarāja, son of No. 1, c. 590-610 A.D.
(3) Svāmikarāja, son of No. 2, c. 610-630 A.D.
(4) Nannarāja Yudhāsura, son of No. 3, c. 630-650 A.D. Known dates, 631 A.D. and (?) 709 A.D.
(5) Dantivarman, probably son of No. 4, 650-670 A.D.
(6) Indra Pṛchhakarāja, son of No. 5, c. 670-690 A.D.
(7) Govindarāja, son of No. 6, c. 690-710 A.D.
(8) Karka I, son of No. 7, c. 710-730 A.D.
(9) Indra I, son of No. 8, c. 730-745 A.D.
