The Dynastic History of Northern India (Early Mediaeval Period) v2.c31.587

- **Language:** English

### [v2.c31.587](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c31.587)

These inscriptions cover a period of about 60 years, from 1235 to 1296 V. S. (\*c.\* 1178-1238 A.D.). According to the \*Prabandha-cintāmaṇi\*, Bhīma II reigned for 63 years from V.S. 1235.⁴ According to Merutuṅga's \*Therāvalī\* he ascended the throne in V.S. 1234, \*Caitra\* 14, and apparently continued to reign till V.S. 1300, when Vīsaladeva came to the throne.⁵ As the epigraphic and literary evidences agree in assigning Bhīma a long reign, it is likely that he really ruled from \*c.\* 1235 to about 1298 V.S. (A.D. 1178-1241).
