It is difficult to trace the genealogy of the Tummāṇa Kalacuris after Pṛthvīdeva III. A Bhuvaneswar inscription ¹ gives us the name of king Paramardī or Paramāḍi of the Haihaya-vaṁśa who married Candrikā, the daughter of the Eastern Gaṅga king Anaṅga Bhīma II (*c.* 1211-38 A.D.). The Cāṭeśvar stone inscription of this Gaṅga prince tells us that his Brāhman minister fought with the lord of Tummāṇa.² It is not unlikely that the Haihaya king Paramardī was the ruler of Tummāṇa who was at first the enemy and then the son-in law of Anaṅga Bhīma. In the present state of our knowledge however it is impossible to connect him with the main line of the Kalacuris at Tummāṇa.
