Guhila married Rajjhā, a daughter of the Paramāra Vallabharāja (V. 24). I am unable to identify this prince. The Chatsu inscription tells us that Guhila II created the impression that he was Guhila I come to life again to destroy his foes (V. 22). We are further told (V. 23) that with excellent horses he vanquished the \*Gauḍādhinātha\* and levied tribute upon the princes of the east (\*prācya\*). I am inclined to identify this lord of Gauḍa with Devapāla (\*c.\* 815-54). If this is accepted, we must conclude that the expedition of Guhila II was undertaken in the interest of his overlord, who was still probably Bhoja I (\*c.\* 836-90 A.D.). It seems likely that the small silver coins bearing the legend \*Srī-Guhila\* or \*Guhila-Śrī\* which were dug up in Agra in 1869² really belonged to this prince. - [Previous: v2.c34.s2.8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c34.s2.8) - [Next: v2.c34.s2.10](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c34.s2.10) - [Up: v2.c34.s2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c34.s2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c34.s2.9](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c34.s2.9) · Pramāṇa
