³¹ Chronicles have again made a mistake about this Hindu name. Yahya calls him Bīram Deo. Ferishta has Baram Deo. He was Vīrama Deva. Virama was not the son but the grandson or grandnephew of Vira Singh as is clear from the dynastic list of the Tomar Rajas. A pillar on which these names are inscribed still exists outside the fort of Narwar. They are in the following order :
(1) Vīra Singh.
(2) Uddhāran Dēva son or brother of (1).
(3) Vīrama, son of (2).
(4) Ganapatī Deva, son of (3).
(5) Durgarēndra Deva (Dūngar Singh), son of (4).
(6) Kīrtī Singh, son of (5).
(7) Kalyānmall, son of (6).
(8) Māna Sāhi (Mān Singh), son of (7).
(9) Vikram Sāhī (Vikramāditya), son of (8).
(10) Rama Sāhī, son of (9).
(11) Salivāhan, son of (10). Several other inscriptions of these princes have been found. There are three of Vīrama Deva (A.D. 1408-1410), six of Durgarēndra or Dūngar Singh (1440-1453), five of Kīrtī Singh (1468-1473) and two of Mān Singh (1486-1517). I.G., XVIII, 397; Cunningham, Arch.
