Of the southern kingdom, Chānda, yet more is known, but what little certain knowledge we possess is disfigured and obscured by a rank overgrowth of fiction. Despite the claims to antiquity made in the legends of this kingdom it seems to have risen on the ruins of the Vākātaka dynasty, whose capital was probably at Bhāndak, a village near Chānda, at the end of the eleventh or beginning of the twelfth century, and the names of nineteen kings who reigned between that time and 1751, when the Marāthās occupied the kingdom, have been preserved.
