The Non-Sovereign, Non-Victorious Kārdamaka: Jayadāman

Identification of Ajayatasa with Jayadāman, to whom the bequeathing of the megalopolis of Ujjain by a King Puḷumāvi is documented by a one line epigraph from a panel of the Mahā Stūpa in Kanaganahalli, revivifies the disquisition on this Kshatrapa. Concoction of the chronicle of this particular member of the Kārdamaka ménage is the intent of this paper.
