Pala does not suggest or indicate any ethnic or caste considerations of the Pala dynasty. He came to power in later half of eighth century AD in ''Gaur''/''Gaud'' after being elected by a group of regional chieftains. Origins There are no contemporary sources of information about Gopala's life: he is known only through the later literary references and genealogies in inscriptions.

The later texts of the Pa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
