Misconceptions and Falseness about Chand Dynasty Kings of Kumaon Lists provided by Chand People

 (History of Kumaon from 1000-1790 AD)
         (History of Chand Dynasty Rule in Kumaon)
History of Uttarakhand (Garhwal, Kumaon, Haridwar) - Part 149

                                              ByBhishma Kukreti
 The lists provided by Chand people or their own servants to British administration are on false ground and not on logical grounds.

             Misconceptions for Somchand to Veenchand the Chand Dynasty Kings of Kumaon
 The list of kings from Somchand to Veenchand is false. It is said that Katyuri king donated land to Somchand (700-721) as son in law. However, there was not rule of Katyuri before 740AD.
The name Hammeer for a 7th Chand king (769-786 or 833-856) for the list for a mountainous king is also absurd because Hammeer name became popular in India only when in 1193, Muhammad Gauri carved Hammer name on his coins.  Kashmiri historian used Hammer in his book (1150).

             Misconceptions for Virchand to Parvatchand the Chand Dynasty Kings of Kumaon
 There are no logical evidences for the kings list from Virchand to Parvatchand the Chand kings of Kumaon.

 Chand Dynasty kings List from Inscriptions
 The study of inscriptions provide the following Chand Dynasty Kings of Kumaon-
