v2.c31.78

The three inscriptions noticed above give us dates from 974 to 995 A.D., a period of 21 years. According to Merutuṅga, however, Mūlarāja ruled for 55 years. This author gives V.S. 993 as the date of Mūlarāja's accession, and V.S. 1050 for that of his son Cāmuṇḍa.³ This would actually give the former a reign of about 57 years (*c.* 937-994 A.D.).⁴ The *Vicāraśreṇi* of the same author however gives the reign-period of this prince as 35 years extending from 1017 to 1052 V.S.
