The latest known date for Bijjala is the new-moon day of the month Ashâḍha, corresponding approximately to the 19th July, A. D. 1167, of the Sarvâjit saṁvatsara (S.-S. 1090 current), cited as his twelfth year.¹ The subsequent records shew that the Sarvâjit saṁvatsara was reckoned as the first year of Sôvidêva. And the abdication of Bijjala is, accordingly, to be placed in A. D. 1167, at any time after the 19th July.
