In Herrschergenealogie und religioeses Patronat, Annette
Schmiedchen analyses some 250 inscriptions from the time of the
early medieval royal dynasties of the Rastrakutas, Silaharas, and
Yadavas, who reigned in central India from the 8th to the 13th
centuries. The information derived from copper-plate charters and
stone inscriptions primarily consists of genealogies of the ruling
kings as well as of data regarding their religious foundations and
endowments and the donations of other members of society. Annette
Schmiedchen shows how genealogical accounts were modified to
legitimize individual claims to power, and she convincingly proves
that the 10th and 11th centuries were a period of religious change,
which witnessed a shift in patronage patterns and a closer link
between Vedic Brahmanism and Hindu temple worship.
