Ind.\*, I, p. 70; C. V. Vaidya, \*H. M. H. I.\*, Vol. I, p. 35. Devagupta appears to have been a scion of the later Gupta family, but we do not know with certitude what relationship he bore to Mahāsenagupta (\*see supra\*). According to Dr. Hoernle it was the Emperor Śīlāditya of Western Malwa, son of Yaśodharman, who was defeated by Rājya (\*J. R. A. S.\*, 1903, p. 559), and Dr. R. K. Mookerji subscribes to the same view (\*Harṣa\*, pp. 16, 62). It seems, however, inexplicable how, if Śīlāditya was the principal opponent, his name is omitted in the Madhuban and Banskhera inscriptions and left to be implied by the vague term “others.” - [Previous: c10.s3.14](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tripathi-1937.c10.s3.14) - [Next: c10.s3.16](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tripathi-1937.c10.s3.16) - [Up: c10.s3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tripathi-1937.c10.s3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tripathi-1937.c10.s3.15](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.tripathi-1937.c10.s3.15) · Pramāṇa
