Kamboja-Pala Dynasty of Bengal - Evidence On Later Kamboja Rulers in Bengal

Evidence On Later Kamboja Rulers in Bengal

There is a literary evidence which attests one Kamboja king known as Jagan Nath ruling in Bengal as late as that 16th century. King Jagan Nath is stated to have patronized a Brahmana scholar Sura Mishra who had composed Jagannathaprakasa, a Smriti Granth in honor of this Kamboja king:

Ashesh.Kambojakula.vatansah Shri Jagana Natha iti parsidhah
Akaryad dharmanibandhmaytam dhradhipaiapayairkablai nreshe

This shows that the Kamboja rule in some parts of Bengal must have continued, as late as 16th century.

Famous quotes containing the words evidence, rulers and/or bengal:

    All credibility, all good conscience, all evidence of truth come only from the senses.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    I walk toward one of our ponds; but what signifies the beauty of nature when men are base? We walk to lakes to see our serenity reflected in them; when we are not serene, we go not to them. Who can be serene in a country where both the rulers and the ruled are without principle? The remembrance of my country spoils my walk. My thoughts are murder to the State, and involuntarily go plotting against her.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    In Bengal to move at all
    Is seldom, if ever, done,
    But mad dogs and Englishmen
    Go out in the midday sun.
    Noël Coward (1899–1973)
