Their capital seems to have been Puri,² and their places of note were Hamjaman probably Sanján in Dáhánu, Thána (Shristhának), Sopára (Shurpárak), Chaul (Chemuli), Lonád (Lavanatata), and Uran.³ As the Yádavs call themselves lords of the excellent city of Dvárávatipura or Dwárka and the Kadambas call themselves lords of the excellent city of Banavásipura or Banavási, so the Siláháras call themselves lords of the excellent city of Tagarapura or Tagar. This title would furnish a clue to the origin of the Siláháras if, unfortunately, the site of Tagar was not uncertain.⁴ - [Previous: c7.s5.48](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c7.s5.48) - [Next: c7.s5.50](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c7.s5.50) - [Up: c7.s5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c7.s5) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c7.s5.49](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c7.s5.49) · Pramāṇa
