The Mt. Abu inscriptions of Luntiga (V.S. 1377) says that when the Solar and Lunar races came to an end, the holy Vacca (\*i.e.\*, Vatsa) brought about the creation of a new race of warriors, the Cāhamānas (\*EI\*, Vol. IX, pp. 79 ff.). In the recently published Sevadi grant of Ratnapāla (V.S. 1176), however, the \*Cāhamāna-vaṁśa\* is said to have sprung from a person who came out of the eye of Indra, lord of the East (\*EI\*, Vol. XI, pp. 304 ff.). These composers of Cāhamāna records were also ignorant of the fire-origin of their patrons as late as the 14th century A.D. - [Previous: v2.c32.7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c32.7) - [Next: v2.c32.9](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c32.9) - [Up: v2.c32](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c32) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c32.8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c32.8) · Pramāṇa
