c5.s2.4
It is admitted that the era used by the Traikûṭas is nothing but the Kaḷachuri or Chêdi era which begins on the 5th September 248 A.D. (Ep. Ind., Vol IX, page 129). So Dahrasêna reigned in 455-6 A.D; Vyâghrasêna in 489-90 and the Kaṇhêri plates are dated in the year 493-494 A.D. It is quite possible that this era was not founded by the Traikûṭas; it was perhaps founded by the Âbhiras.
