c12.s1.10

*Parameśvaravarman II, A.D. 700-710.*—About the close of the first decade of the eighth century Rājasimha was succeeded on the Pallava throne by Parameśvaravarman II. The reign of this sovereign appears to have been shortlived. The Vīraṭṭāneśvara temple inscription of this king is dated in the third year of his reign. The Kasākkuḍi plates record of him that he conquered the coquetish ways of the Kali age, that he led the way of policy, which had been prescribed by Dhishaṇa (Bṛhaspati) and that he protected the worlds.’⁴
