India history and geography
Source: academia.edu: Who were the HunasHuna Kings Toramana (190-160 BCE) and Mihirakula (160-130 BCE).—After the death of Skandagupta around 177 BCE, the Huna king Toramana took the advantage of the falling Gupta empire and invaded up to central India. Aulikara dynasty of central India became the ally of Hunas and uprooted the rule of Vakatakas, the allies of Guptas. The Rishthal stone inscription of Aulikara king Prakashadharma dated in Malava Samvat 572 (147 BCE) eulogizes the Huna king Toramana and calls him, “Hunadhipa”.
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.
