Though the identification of these rulers and the names of their principalities are not known in all cases, it is clear that Kalaśa had successfully carried out the old policy of Kashmir, by re-asserting its hegemony over the mountain states that surrounded it from Uraśā in the west to Kāṣṭhavāṭa in the east. Among this list of princes Āsaṭa, the chief of Campā has been identified with the prince of the same name of the Chamba genealogical lists and copper plates.¹ Kalaśa was married to Bappikā, a sister of this prince, during the reign of Ananta. His son Harṣa was the offspring of this union.²
