Rīsthal inscription

[1] The inscription describes the event in the year 515 CE, when the Aulikara king Prakashadharma of Malwa finally defeated the Alchon Huns ruler Toramana in his campaigns into Central India, and how he took away the tusks of his elephants and his harem.

[2][3][4] The portion of the inscription related to Toramana reads: "He (Prakashadharman); Who in battle rendered the title "Lord" of the Huna king false, (though it) had been firmly established on earth up to Toramana, whose footstool had glittered with the sparkling jewels in the crown of kings (that had bowed at his feet); By whom auspicious seats were offered to the ascetics, splendid ones, made of the long tusks of that same (king's) elephants, whose rut was dripping (from their temples) while they were being shot down by (his) arrows at the battle front;

And by whom were carried off a choice of ladies of the harem of that same (king), whom he had defeated by his vigour in the thick of battle, after which he offered them to Lord Vrsabhadhvaja (Shiva) to mark the strength of the arms of the "Light of the World" (Lokaprakasa, i.e. Prakashadharman)This ended the First Hunnic War in Indian territory, until Toramana's son Mihirakula would again attack Central India a few years later.

[4] The purpose of the inscription is to record the construction of a tank, as well as the dedication of a Temple to Shiva by the Rajasthaniya Bagavaddosha in the reign of king Prakasadharma.

[6] The inscription documents one of the Aulikaras royal houses, which comprised the following kings in the order of succession: Drumavardhana, Jayavardhana, Ajitavardhana, Vibhishanavardhana, Rajyavardhana and Prakashadharma (who defeated Toramana).
