The Gupta empire was probably finally destroyed by the Gauḍas who could never forgive Mādhava Gupta's desertion of their cause and who may have grown powerful in the service of Ādityasena. In the time of Yaśovarman of Kanauj, *i.e.*, in the first half of the eighth century A. D., a Gauḍa king occupied the throne of Magadha.⁴
