The Dynastic History of Northern India (Early Mediaeval Period) v2.c32.s8.7

v2.c32.s8.7

It will be seen on comparing this list with that supplied by Naiṇsī that the two generally agree; the only differences are that the latter omits Saṁgrāmasiṁha, the father of Pratāpasiṁha (Pato). Combining the two documents we may conclude that like Kīrtipāla, another son of Ālhaṇa, who conquered Jāvālipura (Jalor) and founded the *Sonigarā* branch, Vijayasirnha conquered Satyapura (Sanchor) and became the founder of the *Sāncorā* branch of the Cāhamānas. The Sundha inscription shows that during the reign of the Sonigarā Udayasiṁha (c. 1206-49 A. D.) Satyapura was within his dominions. A stone inscription of Sāmantasiṁha, Udayasiṁha's grandson, dated in V. S. 1345 (c. 1288 A. D.), has also been found in Sanchor. We may therefore conclude that during this period (c. 1206-88 A. D.) the *Sāṅcorās* were feudatories of the *Sonigarā* branch.
