The Aravidu Dynasty of Vijayanagara, Vol. I v1.c16.30

v1.c16.30

⁷ The Maratha account says that "the mother and the wives of Rajbhuwar (Rama Raya), as soon as they came to know this untoward incident (the defeat and execution of the Hindu chief), set fire to the palace." Chandorkar, l. c., p. 181. If this is true, the palace referred to must be the zenana, since the palace of the King was seen and described one year later by C. Frederick. Cf. No. 9.
