According to Hêmâdri, the second son of Subâhu—(the others are not named)—was Dridhaprahâra, who received, as his portion, the "southern land," and established himself at a city named Srî-nagara. This person is mentioned in the Bassein grant of A. D. 1069,¹ which, however, says that he came from the city of Dvârâvatî, and implies that his capital was a town named Chandrâdityapura; as suggested by Pandit Bhagwanlal Indraji,² this name is very possibly intended to denote the modern Chândôr in the Nâsik District. From an extract given by the Pandit, it seems that Dridhaprahâra is mentioned in the Nâsakakalpa of Jinaprabhasûri.³
