Śivaskandavarman (शिवस्कन्दवर्मन�).—Pallava headquarters in the Andhra country at the time of Śivaskandavarman, a performer of Aśvamedha andother sacrifices, were at Dhaṃñakaḍa (Dhānyakaṭaka).

Śivaskandavarman therefore can hardly be placed earlier than A. D. 300. This view, moreover, can be confirmed by an altogether different line of argument.
