¹⁷⁶² Vide J. R. A. S. for 1911 pp. 479ff and 675ff about the Kaliyuga and its era; 'Five thousand years ago, the Mahābhārata war' a paper by Dr. D. S. Triveda in Festschrift Kane pp. 515-525 in which after setting out many divergent views and criticizing them, it is held that the Mahābhārata war was fought out in 3137 B.C.; 'Purāṇic date of Mahābhārata', a paper by Mr. M. Raja Rao in the Bulletin of the Ganganath Jha Research Society, vol. II pp. 125-143, which mentions numerous dates suggested by various scholars. I am not at all convinced of the correctness of Dr. Triveda's conclusions, in spite of the great learning that he brings to bear on the problem. Vide also his paper in 'Bhāratīya Vidyā', vol. VI (1945) pp. 117-120.
