Kalyāṇamitra Chintāmani copied the valuable work *Ashṭasāhasrikā Prajñāpāramitā* in the sixth year of the reign of King Mahīpāla, son of Vigrahapāla, as a token of respect for the King. The same work was also copied in the reigns of Rāmapāla and Govindapāladeva who is not identified. Lastly, a votive Stūpa unearthed at Nālandā refers to the Gurjara-Pratihāra King Māhendrapāladeva who had conquered Magadha about the tenth century A.D. [*Arch. S. R.*, 1924-5, p. 86].
