¹ It is very strange that Wheeler, *History of India*, IV, pt. III, p. 574, in the *Hindu Annals* compiled from the Mackenzie Manuscripts, after saying that Visvanatha defeated and slew his Pandya opponent, states: “After this Visvanatha died upon the field of battle, and a monument was built to his memory”. It cannot but be a misunderstanding of the text, because the *Mityunjaya* MSS. state likewise that Visvanatha “conquered the five independent Princes of the South, who acknowledged no earthly superior”. Taylor, *O. H. MSS.*, II, p. 111.
