India history and geography
Source: Shodhganga: a concise history of Sanskrit Chanda literature (history)Rājāvalī (राजावली) is the name of a work ascribed to Kṣemendra (11th century): one among the Kashmiri scholars who glorified the legacy of rhetorics with a new interpretation of the soul of poetry (aucitya). A total number of 38 works (viz., Rājāvalī) have been recorded in the “New Catalogus Catalogorum”, which are composed by Kṣemendra. He is not only a poetician but also a scholar of high repute.

(EI 10), royal titles; cf. rājāvalī pūrvavat (IE 8-2), ‘the royal titles as above’, often used when a repetition of the string of royal titles was avoided. Cf. Paramabhaṭṭārak-ety-ādi-rāja-avalī- tray-opeta referring to the imperial titles Paramabhaṭṭāraka, Mahārājādhirāja and Parameśvara. Note: rāja-avalī is defined in the “Indian epigraphical glossary” as it can be found on ancient inscriptions commonly written in Sanskrit, Prakrit or Dravidian languages.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
