² It has been suggested (Ind. Ant. Vol. XIV. p. 13) that it is the eightieth year from the conquest of the Nâgas by Krishṇavarman; from which it would follow that Kâkusthavarman and his descendants were subsequent to Krishṇavarman and Dêvavarman. But this is quite disposed of by the Tâlgund record.—While, on the one hand, Krishṇavarman cannot now be placed before Kâkusthavarman’s line, so also there is no reason for placing him after it. The statement, in the Aihoḷe inscription, that Kirtivarman I. broke up the “assemblage or collection,” i.e. the “confederacy,” of the Kadambas, indicates that there were two or three synchronous reigning branches of the family.
