He is supported by the \*Rājataraṅgiṇī\* of Kalhaṇa, VII, 38 ff., which refers to a \*Sāhi\* prince of this name, who was a contemporary of Saṁgrāmarāja (1003-28). The fights of this prince with Hammīra which led to the extinction of the \*Sāhis\* are clearly referred to by the Kashmirian chronicler, and are in agreement with what is known of the \*Sāhi\* ruler from Muslim historians. Under the circumstances the \*Naro-Jaypāl\* of \*TA\* (see p. 8, and fn. 2) and \*Jaypāl\* of \*TF\* (Brigg's Trans., Vol. I, p. 54) appear to be wrong. The difficulty of the Muslim writers in understanding and spelling this name is shown by al-Bīrūnī's rendering. ‘\*Taro-janpāl\*,’ which however is the nearest rendering of Trilocanapāla; see also \*Elliot\*, Vol. II, pp. 426-427, where he wrongly takes \*Jaypāl\* to be the correct name. - [Previous: v1.c12.192](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v1.c12.192) - [Next: v1.c12.194](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v1.c12.194) - [Up: v1.c12](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v1.c12) ## Cites (1) - [Rājataraṅgiṇī](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.historical.kashmir.rajatarangini) — Kalhaṇa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v1.c12.193](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v1.c12.193) · Pramāṇa
