c6.s3.2
Pravarasēna II being the grandson of Chandra-Gupta II (375-413) was certainly living in the second quarter of the V century.
c6.s3.3
The box-headed alphabets of the Kadamba kings Mrigēśa and Māndhatri are contemporaneous with the box-headed alphabet of the Balaghat plates of Prithivishēna II who was the son of a Kadamba (Kuntala) princess.
c6.s3.4
The Uruvapalli plates of Yuvamahārāja Vishnugōpa are box-headed as the plates of the Kadamba kings Mrigēśa and Māndhatri.
c6.s3.5
The alphabets of the Bendiganhalli (Mysore Arch. Rep. for 1914-15, plate XVIII) Chikkulla (Ep. Ind. Vol. IV, p. 196) and Bannahalli (Ep. Ind. Vol. VI., p. 18) plates are so similar that there is no room for doubting that the Ganga Krishnavarman, the Vishnukundin Vikramēndravarman II and the Kadamba Krishnavarman II were contemporaneous; the sister of this latter king married the Ganga Mādhava II.
c6.s3.6
It is very probable that the Kadamba Harivarman ascended the throne in 537 A. D. and so, was contemporaneous with the Pallava king Vishnugōpa (525-550), grand father of Simhavishnu whose date 575-600 is not doubtful.
