³ The longest recorded duration for two generations of kings is found in the history of Orissa. Inscriptions establish that Choṛagaṅga reigned from 998 to 1069 Saka, equivalent approximately to A. D. 1076–1147, and that he was succeeded by four sons, who reigned until A. D. 1198. Those figures give about 122 years for five reigns and two generations (M. M. Chakravarti, 'Chronology of the Eastern Ganga Kings of Orissa', *J. A. S. B.*, part I, vol. lxxii, 1903).
