Page title
[edit]Should this page retitled as Katyuri Kingdom, in line with the infobox? -- Kautilya3 (talk) 15:24, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
@Kautilya3 Exactly, the page should be titled about Katyuri Kingdom. The ancient terminology for that Kingdom was "Karttikeyapuri/Karttikeyapura Kingdom" (meaning: city of Karttikeya; Nepali/Kumaoni: कर्तिकेयपुरी) which was dumbed down into more easier sounding "Katyuri/Katyur Kingdom". Dedicated to son of Shiva, the Karttikeya, the patron deity of Kumaon and West Nepal from the cultural aspect- it was a Shaivite Kingdom with Baijnath, Bageshwar temple complexes. Karttikeya is still worshipped and is referred by the name "Karttikeya", "Mohanyal" in both Kumaon and Farwest Nepal. There's a city in Nepal named "Mohanyal" dedicated to this ancient Kingdom Mohanyal_Rural_Municipality.
It holds true that it was a pan Shaivite Hindu Kingdom that ruled over both West Nepal and Kumaon, so it's not just a dynasty. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2400:1A00:B010:13EA:6C35:194F:9D72:7CB9 (talk) 07:31, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
Khas Kingdom
[edit]According to the Department of Archaeology of Nepal there was a Khas Kingdom from 12th century to the 15th century in the place of current western Nepal, Kumaun and Garhwal. The Sinja was the capital of Khas kingdom which is currently located at Jumla District of Karnali. After the disintegration of the Khas Kingdom, present Uttarakhand and Western Nepal divided into many small independent principalities. Those small principalities in western Nepal united to form Baise Rajya (22 principalities) and Chaubisi Rajya (24 principalities). Kingdom of Gorkha was one of the Chaubisi Rajya who started the unification campaign again and took control on Doti, Kumaun, Garhwal and Sirmaur from 1790 to 1805. http://doa.gov.np/downloadfile/ancient_nepal_179_full_1499926508_1594548473.pdf -- 👤Raju💌
