v2.c27.887

2. Parakkamapura.—A stronghold in South India, built at Kundukāla by the general Laṅkāpura. The Chronicle contains a vivid account of a battle which took place just outside the gates of the stronghold between the forces of Laṅkāpura and of Kulasekhara. But no more is heard of the stronghold; it may have been abandoned in favour of another.¹
