Concise History of Mewar
A chronology of Mewar's 76 Rulers and their times (AD ca 569-2001)
including some parallel events in India.
Conflicting dates exist for the reigns of Guhil and his two immediate successors, Bhoj and Mahendra I.
Some texts maintain Guhil's reign began as early as 566 AD. The following dates must still be considered approximate.
