Failed verification. Not found in the 452nd page of Rima Hooja's the History of Rajasthan. More likely a fancy map. ImperialAficionado (talk) 12:40, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ImperialAficionado Not Found? You dare to check it or not or you just placed the deleting request. However I am citing the source which I have mentioned from A History Of Rajasthan"As a consequence of Sanga’s exploits, the borders of Mewar by this period extended from near Mandu (the capital of Malwa), in the south to Peela Khal (Pilya Khal), a small rivulet near Bayana and Agra, in the north-east, and deep into the desert country (stretching towards the river Indus) west and north-west of Mewar."

    Map of the territory of the Sisodiyas, in (1978) A Historical atlas of South Asia, Chicago: University of Chicago Press, p. 148, map XIV.4 (c) ISBN: 0226742210.
    I am attaching the map derived from the Schwartzberg Atlas. The [1] map seems rather exaggerated, especially the northern extension: the border should stop well before Uttar Pradesh. Technically, it is accepted to make a map based on textual evidence only, but here the text is a bit vague, and the map shows a larger territory: "As a consequence of Sanga’s exploits, the borders of Mewar by this period extended from near Mandu (the capital of Malwa), in the south to Peela Khal (Pilya Khal), a small rivulet near Bayana and Agra, in the north-east, and deep into the desert country (stretching towards the river Indus) west and north-west of Mewar." (if the source is properly quoted) Better to follow Schwartzberg. Also, using a modern map as a base is a bad idea: it is anachronistic. पाटलिपुत्र (talk) 06:28, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
