Bhageerath
Several scholars identify Bhageerath with the unnamed "ruler of the Kuntala country" or "Kuntaleshwara" who received an embassy from the Gupta emperor Chandragupta Vikramaditya. This embassy was led by the famous poet Kalidasa, and was mentioned in the "Sringaraprakasika" of the poet Bhoja as well as in two other later works, the "Kavyamimamsa" of Rajashekhara and the "Auchityavicharacharcha" of Kshemendra. One of the primary purposes of this embassy seems to have been to negotiate a marriage alliance between the two royal houses. The establishment of such diplomatic relations with the leading figures of India at the time shows the high status and prestige that King Bhageerath and his country must have enjoyed.
