The Early History of the Deccan (Parts I–XI) v2.c14.11

v2.c14.11

THE history of the Yādava dynasty, which dominated the politics of the Deccan during the thirteenth century, goes back to the end of the ninth century. It is, however, not yet fully known during its earlier period. Few contemporary inscriptions have been found, and Hemādri, who has given us an account of the achievements of the house, contents himself by merely recording the names of its early rulers. As he himself lived towards the end of the thirteenth century, his information about the kings of the tenth and eleventh centuries is naturally often incomplete and inaccurate.
