Out of the ruins of the Gupta Empire arose four kingdoms in India at the close of the sixth century of the Christian Era. These kingdoms included the Maitrakas of Valabhi, the Chalukyas of Badami, the Pushpabhutis of Thanesar and Maukharis of Kanauj. Thanesar is an ancient site on the Sarasvati in Haryana, well known as the scene of the Mahabharata, the battle between the Kauravas and the Pandavas. At the close of the sixth century, Prabhakaravardhana was the ruler of Thanesar. He successfully fought the Huns and the Kushan king of Gandhara.
