A History of Assam c7.s2.36

c7.s2.36

∗ The traditions vary as to the name and lineage of the king whose wife gave birth to Arimatta, and it is useless trying to reconcile them. One version is given in the text. Another is that he was of the Nāgākhya line, and another that he was the descendant of three kings named Māyurdhvaj, Tāmradhvaj and Pratāppuriya who ruled in succession at Ratnapur; the wife of the last mentioned was Hārmāti, the daughter of Hirabinda, who was descended from Irābatta, king of Saumār. Others, again, identify him with Mrigang, who has already been mentioned.
