Nagabhata I
Nagabhata I (730-760) was the ruler of the kingdom of Avanti that founded the Gurjara Pratihara dynasty which eventually took control over western India. His capital was Ujjain. He defeated an invasion by the Arabs from Sindh and captured Kathiawar, Malwa, Gujarat and several parts of Rajaputana.
== Origin ==
The antecedents of Nagabhata I are not fully known. A medieval Jaina Prabandha (religious text) talks of a ruler Nāhada, identified with Nagabhata I by Dasharatha Sharma, who is said to have been a "soldier of fortune" and the first ruler of his family. It also states that he made Jalor (Jābālipura) his capital and came into conflict with a Muslim ruler, whom he defeated. Dasharatha Sharma put forward the view that Jalor was the original home of the Gurjara-Pratiharas, from where they might have emigrated. On the other hand, R. C. Majumdar and Baij Nath Puri hold the view that Ujjain, the capital of Avanti, was the original home of Pratiharas. The rationale for the claim rests on the description in another Jain text ''Harivamsa'' (783-784), which describes Nagabhata's grand-nephew Vatsaraja as the king and son of Avanti soil (''Avanti-bhūbriti''). It also describes the other neighbouring kingdoms leaving one in no doubt about its location.
An inscription of Gallaka, a subordinate of Vatsaraja, in the year 795 regards Nagabhata I as the one who had acquired victory over the "invincible Gurjaras" and obtained fame. Thus, even though the dynasty is called Gurjara-Pratiharas, it is not certain if the kings themselves were Gurjaras.
