(5) The Rāṣṭrakūṭas of Kathiawar
v1.c19.s5.1
A *Veraval inscription* dated in V. S. 1442 (A.D. 1384) gives us the name of prince (*Nṛpa*) Bharma of the *Rāṣṭroḍa-vaṁśa*.² Veraval is a port in the State of Junagarh, in Kathiawar, situated in Lat. 20°33′ N. and Long. 70°26′ E. The inscription reveals the existence of Rāṣṭrakūṭa chiefs in Kathiawar even after the Muslim conquest in 1299 A.D., and is chiefly interesting as it supplies the form *Rāṣṭroḍa* which shows the gradual vernacularisation of the word Rāṣṭrakūṭa towards modern Rāṭhoḍa or Rāṭhor.
