In formal passages, the customary epithet of śrîprithivîvallabha is connected with those titles: but, also, vallabha was sometimes attached to his name, which then appears as Krishnavallabha;³ and in one instance the epithet vallabharâja, "king of favourites," is connected with his biruda Akâlavarsha.⁴ His wife was a younger sister of Saṅkuka, and a daughter of Kokkala or Kokkalla, elsewhere also called Kôkalla, king of Chêdi, who is said in the Kardâ grant of A. D. 972 to be of the lineage of Sahasrârjuna, i. e. of Kârtavîrya, or Sahasrabâhu-Arjuna, prince of the Haihayas; this Kokkala or Kokkalla, king of Chêdi, is, therefore, the first of that name, in General Sir Alexander Cunningham's list of the Kalachuri kings of Tripurî or Têwar near Jabalpur.⁶ The earliest synchronous date that we have for Krishna II. is in April, A. D. 888, furnished by the Bagumrâ grant (if it is genuine) which is mentioned further on, and failing that, by an unpublished inscription at Betgere in the Dhârwâr District, which is a few days later in actual date: but he must have succeeded to the throne very soon after A. D. 878, at the latest; for his father had then been reigning for sixty-four years.
