page 521 note 2 It is worthy of note that kings like Śivaskandavarman and Vishnugōpa are not even referred to.

page 522 note 1 Vīrakūrcha, Skandavarman, Kumāravishnu, Buddhavarman, Vishnugōpa, and Nandivarman are mentioned in the earliest Sanskṛit charter of the dynasty; Ind. Ant., vol. 37 (1908), p. 283 fGoogle Scholar.

page 522 note 2 His son Mahēndravarman II is omitted here.

page 522 note 3 Narasiṁhavarman II is described as the son's son (putra-sūnu) of Paramēśvaravarman I.

page 522 note 4 This evidently refers to the Kailāsanātha temple which was called in ancient times Rājasiṁhesvara after the builder Rajasiṁha (also called Narasiṁhavarman (II), Narasiṁhavishnu, and Narasiṁhapōtavarman).

page 523 note 2 The word vijaya prefixed to the names of Dantivikrama, Nandivikrama, Nṛipatuṅgavikrama, and other kings of this series, may be taken to show that the first king of their line acquired dominion by victory. The word was probably added to distinguish Dantivarman and Nandivarman from their namesakes of the other line. It is worthy of note that Nandivarman (II) is altogether omitted in the Bāhūr plates. Besides, Vimala and Koṅkaṇika are mentioned as the ancestors of the dynasty.

page 524 note 1 Even if Dantivarman and Nandivarman are disposed of in this way, there will still be left Kō-Vijaya-Narasiinhavarman, Vijaya-Īśvaravarman, and Kō-Vijaya-Skandaśishyavikramavarman, who seem to have been Gaṅga-Pallavas, but whose relationship to the other members of the Pallava family remains to be disclosed by future researches.
