During the reign of Jayavarman II of Malwa, the Paramara dynasty may have expanded its domains northwards in the West, around Atru and further north. [1] This expansion can be attested by Jayavarman's Atru inscription as well as that of the Chahamana ruler Hammiradeva. [2]
These conquests caused a series of conflicts between the Paramaras and the Chahamanas of Ranastambhapura. The 1288 CE Balvan inscription of Hammiradeva suggests that his father Jaitra-simha (died 1283 CE) defeated Jayasimha of Mandapa-Durga.
The inscription states that he defeated the brave warriors of Jayasimha at Jhampaighatta, and imprisoned them at the Ranthambore fort. [3]
