¹ *EI*, Vol. I, p. 129, V. 45. Kielhorn identified *Mālavanadi* with the river *Vetravatī* or Betwa and Bhāsvat with Bhailasvamin, the mod. Bhilsa. Gopagri is certainly Gopādri, identified with mod. Gwalior. Unfortunately no inscriptions of the Candellas have yet been discovered in Gwalior but it is likely that the family of the Kacchapaghāta *Mahārājādhirāja* Vajradāman, for whose reign we have the Gwalior image inscription, dated V.S. 1034 (*JASB*, Vol. XXXI, p. 393), may have been feudatories of the Candellas. The Dubkhund inscription (*EI*, Vol. II, p. 237) dated in V.S. 1145 indicates that the Kacchapaghāta Arjuna was a feudatory of Vidyādhara, the grandson of Dhaṅga.
