It is clear that under the term ‘Andhras’ the Vāyu and the Brahmāṇḍa include two dynasties—the Subordinate Andhras who bore the imperial title and another, the Andhra Śrī-Pārvatīyas. Their duration in each case is of 100 years, against the 105 years of the Matsya. Dr. Hall's copy ² of the Brahmāṇḍa and the e- Vayu of Mr. Pargiter (which is really a Brahmāṇḍa MS.), give 100 years to the one and 100½ years to the other. Thus, in fact, all these three Purāṇas are describing three feudatory dynasties.
