History of Kanauj to the Moslem Conquest c9.s1.t1.13

c9.s1.t1.13

² This date rests on the evidence of three inscriptions:
(a) Fleet, *C. I. I., III*, No. 19, pp. 88-90; Eran stone pillar inscription of Budhagupta, dated Gupta year 165.
(b) *Ibid.*, No. 20, pp. 91-93; Eran posthumous inscription of Goparāja, dated Gupta year 191.
(c) *Ibid.*, No. 36, pp. 158-61; Eran inscription dated in the first year of Toramāṇa. See also *Gupta Coins*, p. lxii, where Mr. Allan rightly remarks that “it was in resisting the invader (Toramāṇa) that Goparāja fell.”
