In connection with his success in stemming the tide of Musalman invasions in Jejāka-bhukti, it is interesting to notice that the Ajaigarh stone-inscription of Vīravarman (\*V. S.\* 1317-A. D. 1261) compares Trailokyavarman with Viṣṇu, ‘in lifting up the earth immersed in the ocean formed by the streams of the Turuṣkas.’² Both the Musalman and Hindu records are silent about the details of this struggle. But the fact that the above-mentioned inscription calls Trailokyavarman ‘a very creator in providing strong places’ (\*durggapravidhāna-vedhāḥ\*) may possibly contain a hint of the system of warfare followed by the Candella prince.³
