⁹⁹² Vide JRAS for 1911 pp. 479-96 and 675-698 (Dr Fleet), H. of Dh. vol. III pp. 896-902 for discussions about the Kaliyuga beginning. In 'Ancient Indian chronology' Prof. Sen-Gupta after a lengthy and somewhat vehement argument concludes that the date of the Bhārata battle is 2449 B. C. and that the year 3102 B. C. for it is wrong (p. 1-59). Vide C R.C. Report pp. 252-254 for Kaliyuga era. It may be noted that Janamejaya, son of Parīkṣit, is mentioned as the performer of an Aśvamedha sacrifice in Śat. Br. XIII. 5. 4. Whether he is the same as the Mahābhārata hero is more than one can say, but it is not unlikely that he is the same.
