Notes

  1. According to some sources Simuka is believed to have overthrown Susarman of Kanva dynasty, however many historians argue that Simuka wasn't contemporary to Susarman it was his successor who overthrew him. Simuka's successor is generally believed to be Kanha or Satakarni I however due to the Puranas mention more than 30 kings after Simuka , King who defeated and killed Susarman remains unknown.
