The contributions of the diverse regions of India to the evolution of Hindu law in the twelfth century¹¹ were no less significant than in the previous century. Lakṣmīdhara (c 1150) wrote *Smriti Kalpataru*. The author was foreign minister of Govindachandra, the Gahadavāl or Rāṭhor Emperor of Kanauj (1104-1154). His influence on Bengal and Mithilā was very great. He is quoted by Aniruddha, Ballālasena, Śūlapāṇi and Raghunandana of Bengal. He was plagiarized by Chaṇḍeśvara (1315).
