The Rashtrakutas and their Times c7.s1.47

c7.s1.47

If we reject the date 709 A.D., supplied by the Multai plates, as not genuine, it will appear very probable that Nannarāja was the predecessor, and very likely the father, of Dantivarman, the earliest known ancestor of Dantidurga. If, on the other hand, that date has to be accepted as genuine, the probability would be that Dantivarman was a younger brother of Nannarāja Yudhāsura, ruling somewhere in Khāndesh, over part of the dominions of his elder brother. Nannarāja may have had no sons, or they and their descendants may have been eclipsed altogether by the successors of Dantivarman.
