daughter of a Chēdi King called
Yuvaraja. From these references it would appear that the Kalachuris and Rāshtrakūtas in their intermarriages follow the Andhra principle(enunciated by Apastamba) of marrying maternal uncles' daughters. At any rate it is a principle of South Indian social tradition by which they are governed. From the last evidence of Amõghavarsha Rāshtrakūta it appears as if the varsha personal name is adopted by the Rāshtrakūtas from their Kalachuri grandfathers on the maternal side.
These Kalachuris call themselves Trikalingadhipatis. They thus connect themselves with a branch of Andhra history. Kharavāla of Kalinga is said to be a Chetiya, i.e., a Chēdiya. Their influence in Kalinga remains still open to research. The Kadambas are another South Indian power whom the Chalukyas had to subdue before they could get into power in the Deccan. The Kadamba plates of Goa give a good deal of valuable information as regards their contribution to South Indian culture.
The Kadambas must, from the reference to Vishnukundi-Kadamba-Satakarni, be referred * to the last years of the Satavahana rule in the Deccan. The Talgund inscription referring to a Satakarni or the Satakarnis may also be used to fix this point. However, it is suggested that there were two or three synchronously reigning
Kadamba Culture.
