YASHODHARMAN. The ruler of Malwa in central India during the first half of the sixth century A.D. He is famous for having defeated the Huna leader, Mihirgub, and driven him back. He probably was assisted in this feat by the north Indian ruler of the Gupta Dynasty. Yashodharman erected two victory pillars in Mandasore. Their inscriptions credit him with very wide domains and many military victories over his adversaries far and near. Nothing further has been discovered as yet about his antecedents, his successors, or his other achievements.
