The inscription supplies some interesting information in connection with the achievements of Dhavala. Muñjarāja has been correctly identified with the Paramāra Vākpati-Muñja (*c.* 974-95 A.D.).⁴ The lord of the Gurjaras mentioned here was most probably the Caulukya Mūlarāja I of Gujrat (*c.* 961-96 A.D.),⁵ while the prince whose name is lost was possibly a Guhila of Medapāṭa. Durlabharāja was identified by Kielhorn with the brother of the Cāhamāna Vigraharāja of the Harṣa inscription dated in V.S. 1030.¹ The same scholar rightly identified Mahendra with the Naddūla Cāhamāna of the same name.² Pandit Ramkaran has suggested the possibility of the identification of Dharaṇīvarāha with the Paramāra king of that name, who is said to have been the ruler of Nav-kot in Marwar.³
