According to the [[Aphsad inscription of Ādityasena]] (seventh century) Kumaragupta (fourth King of the dynasty) was contemporary to the [[Maukhari]] King [[Ishanavarman]]. It is probable the first three [[Later Gupta dynasty|Later Gupta]] Kings were contemporary to the first three [[Maukhari]] Kings. It is further proven that the second King (Adityavarman) married Harshaguptā, the sister of the second [[Later Gupta dynasty|Later Gupta]] King (Harshagupta).{{sfnp|Goyal|1967|p=[https://archive.org/details/goyal-1967/page/364/mode/1up. 367]}} | According to the [[Aphsad inscription of Ādityasena]] (seventh century) Kumaragupta (fourth King of the dynasty) was contemporary to the [[Maukhari]] King [[Ishanavarman]].

[[Ishanavarman]] may have been the contemporary of Jivitagupta I, who is known to have won against his enemies whether they stood on the Himalayas or on seashore (including the [[Gauda Kingdom]]). Ishanavarman also was victorious against the [[Gauda Kingdom|Gaudas]]. It likely possible that both of them defeated the same foes, the [[Gauda Kingdom|Gaudas]].{{sfnp|Goyal|1967|p=[https://archive.org/details/goyal-1967/page/364/mode/1up. 367]}}{{sfnp|Majumdar|1970|p=[https://archive.org/details/classicalage03bhar/page/40/mode/1up. 41]}} [[Ishanavarman]] is stated to have forced them to stay at their proper realm:{{sfnp|Dasagupta|1960|p=[https://archive.org/details/dli.bengal.10689.12720/page/n204/mode/1up. 183]}} | |||

Gopachandra was most likely the contemporary ruler of the Gaudas who ruled over a portion of [[West Bengal]] and fought against [[Ishanavarman]]{{sfnp|Majumdar|Altekar|1954|p=[https://archive.org/details/in.gov.ignca.2028/page/n212/mode/1up. 194]}} and Jivitagupta I.{{sfnp|Dasagupta|1960|p=[https://archive.org/details/dli.bengal.10689.12720/page/n204/mode/1up. 203]}} Eventually, Gopachandra was driven back to the Deltaic region to the east of Bhāgīrathī. Jivitagupta probably fought against the independent [[Vanga Kingdom]] as well.{{sfnp|Dasagupta|1960|p=[https://archive.org/details/dli.bengal.10689.12720/page/n204/mode/1up. 203]}} | |||
