Raichur doab

The dry country between the Krishna and the Tungabhadra: Raichur, Mudgal, Koppal and Yelburga, with Hampi on the Tungabhadra and Ballari to the south.

Kalyani Chalukya feudatories gave way to Sinda and other chiefs; the Hoysalas claim it from the 1190s, the Yadavas and Kakatiyas have claims too. Nothing I read says who holds the ground on 1 January 1200.

How things stand that morning

Between three claims. South of the Tungabhadra the Hoysala plateau is sik's ground (anchored at Gadag, Hubli and Ranebennur).

Where the sources disagree

Evidence: The Raichur and Bidar articles (read) have no date for 1200; the Sinda record carries the Hoysala claim.
