Jayarjunadeva, also known as Jayarjuna, () was the son of Jayarajadeva and the tenth king of Nepal. Jayarjuna succeeded his father in 1360 and reigned until his deposition in 1381. Reign Jayarjuna was proclaimed as the King in 1360, but his reign officially began after his father died in 1361.

Jayasthiti Malla, also spelled Jayasthitimalla, () was the eleventh Malla king of Nepal. His absolute rule over the valley began after deposing Jayarjunadeva in 1382 until his death in 1395.

The generally accepted narrative is that he was a person of noble birth in the Mithila region, and was brought to Kathmandu valley by Devaladevi in 1354 to marry Rajaladevi, her granddaughter and the heir apparent of Bhadgaon. Some scholars state that he was a son of an obscure figure Ashoka Malla. Jayasthiti Malla started to play a prominent role in politics after the death of Devalakshmidevi in 1366.

Jayarajadeva
Jayarajadeva, also known as Jayaraja, () was the ninth king of Nepal and an illegitimate son of Jayanandadeva. Jayaraja succeeded Jayari Malla and reigned as a powerless monarch from 1348 until his death in 1361. Reign Background Jayari Malla died in 1344 and left the throne vacant. A power struggle between the Bhonta House and Tripura House ensued. At that time, Devaladevi, the sister of Rudra Malla, was the de facto head of Tripura House.

Following this agreement, Jayarajadeva was crowned as king in 1348. However, Devaladevi was given titles higher than his. Expansion of dominion Jayaraja had a prime minister named Aneka Rama whose son, Jayasimha Rama, served as the attendant for the heir apparent Jayarjunadeva.

Malla (Nepal)
The Malla dynasty () also known as the Malla confederacy, was the ruling dynasty of the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal from 1201 to 1779. This dynasty was founded by Arideva Malla. Though the latter Mallas were regarded as belonging to the Raghuvamsha dynasty, they were also seen as continuations and descendants of the Licchavi dynasty. Later Malla kings also traced one section of their lineage from Nanyadeva, the founder of the Karnat dynasty of Mithila. The term M''alla'' means wrestler in Sanskrit. The first use of the word M''alla'' in the Kathmandu Valley began in 1201. The Malla period stretched over 600 years, as they presided over and flourished the Newar civilization of Nepal Mandala which developed as one of the most sophisticated urban civilisations in the Himalayan foothills and a key destination on the India-Tibet trade route. During the Malla Dynasty, Nepal Bhasa was the official language,Lienhard, Siegfried (1992). ''Songs of Nepal: An Anthology of Nevar Folkson ...

House Of Bhonta
A house is a single-unit residential building. It may range in complexity from a rudimentary hut to a complex structure of wood, masonry, concrete or other material, outfitted with plumbing, electrical, and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems.Schoenauer, Norbert (2000). ''6,000 Years of Housing'' (rev. ed.) (New York: W.W. Norton & Company). Houses use a range of different roofing systems to keep precipitation such as rain from getting into the dwelling space. Houses generally have doors or locks to secure the dwelling space and protect its inhabitants and contents from burglars or other trespassers. Most conventional modern houses in Western cultures will contain one or more bedrooms and bathrooms, a kitchen or cooking area, and a living room. A house may have a separate dining room, or the eating area may be integrated into the kitchen or another room. Some large houses in North America have a recreation room. In traditional agriculture-oriented societies, domes ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
