Trailokyamalla (Kalachuri Dynasty)
Trailokyamalla (r. c. 1210s CE), also called Trailokyamalladeva, was a ruler of the Kalachuris of Tripuri, Kalachuri dynasty of central India. His kingdom was centered around the Chedi or Dahala region in present-day Madhya Pradesh. Trailokyamalla is the last known king of his dynasty. It is not known how and when his rule ended. Reign Trailokyamalla was a son of the Kalachuri king Vijayasimha, as attested by the 1193 CE Jhulpur inscription, which records a grant made on Trailokyamalla's birthday. Vijayasimha's reign ended around 1210 CE. Information about Trailokyamalla's reign comes from a 1212 CE (963 Kalachuri Era, KE) inscription discovered at Dhureti near Rewa district. The inscription, which records a village grant, mentions the traditional high-sounding imperial Kalachuri titles for Trailokyamalla. The find spot of the inscription suggests that he retained the territories that he inherited from his father. The inscription also calls him the lord of Kanyakubja (modern K ...

Kalachuris Of Tripuri
The Kalachuris of Tripuri ( IAST: ), also known the Kalachuris of Chedi, ruled parts of central India during 7th to 13th centuries. They are also known as the Later Kalachuris to distinguish them from their earlier namesakes, especially the Kalachuris of Mahishmati. Their core territory included the historical Chedi region (also known as Dahala-mandala), and their capital was located at Tripuri (present-day Tewar near Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh). The origin of the dynasty is uncertain, although one theory connects them to the Kalachuris of Mahishmati. By the 10th century, the Kalachuris of Tripuri had consolidated their power by raiding neighbouring territories and by fighting wars with the Gurjara-Pratiharas, the Chandelas and the Paramaras. They also had matrimonial relations with the Rashtrakutas and the Chalukyas of Kalyani. In the 1030s, the Kalachuri king Gangeyadeva assumed imperial titles after achieving military successes at his eastern and northern frontiers. The ki ...

Vijayasimha
Vijayasimha (IAST: Vijaya-siṃha, r. c. 1188-1210 CE) was a ruler of the Kalachuri dynasty of Tripuri in central India. His kingdom was centered around the Chedi or Dahala region in present-day Madhya Pradesh. Reign Vijayasimha succeeded his father Jayasimha as the Kalachuri king. His mother was Gosaladevi, and he had a brother named Ajayasimha. Sallakshana, a feudatory of Vijayasimha, declared independence during his reign. However, another feudatory named Malayasimha defeated Sallakshana in a battle fought at Karkaredi (modern Kakredi in Rewa district). This battle is recorded in the 1193 CE Rewa stone inscription. Malayasimha also defeated a ruler named Vikrama, whose identity is not certain. Some earlier scholars believed that Vijayasimha lost control of the northern portion of his kingdom to the Chandela king Trailokyavarman. This theory was based on the identification of "Trailokyamalla" mentioned in an inscription with Trailokyavarman. However, the discovery of the 1 ...

Find Spot
Provenance (from the French ''provenir'', 'to come from/forth') is the chronology of the ownership, custody or location of a historical object. The term was originally mostly used in relation to works of art but is now used in similar senses in a wide range of fields, including archaeology, paleontology, archives, manuscripts, printed books, the circular economy, and science and computing. The primary purpose of tracing the provenance of an object or entity is normally to provide contextual and circumstantial evidence for its original production or discovery, by establishing, as far as practicable, its later history, especially the sequences of its formal ownership, custody and places of storage. The practice has a particular value in helping authenticate objects. Comparative techniques, expert opinions and the results of scientific tests may also be used to these ends, but establishing provenance is essentially a matter of documentation. The term dates to the 1780s in English ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Rahatgarh
Rahatgarh is a town and a nagar panchayat in Sagar district in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh. History An inscription of the Paramara king Jayavarman II, dated 28 August 1256 CE, was issued at Rahatgarh and discovered on a stone slab by Alexander Cunningham during the 1870s. The 14-line inscription is written in Sanskrit prose. The inscription drafts a royal document of ''Maharajadhiraja'' ("great king") of Dhara. As the inscription is partially damaged, different scholars have read the name of the king as "Jayasimhadeva" or "Jayavarmadeva". It is possible that Jayavarman captured the area from the Chandelas.

They belonged to the Parmara clan of the Rajputs. The dynasty was established in either the 9th or 10th century, and its early rulers most probably ruled as vassals of the Rashtrakutas of Manyakheta.

Around 972 CE, Siyaka sacked the Rashtrakuta capital Manyakheta, and established the Paramaras as a sovereign power.
