Kangra is a massive fort in modern-day Himachal Pradesh, in the low foothills of the Himalayas. The Hindu kings who ruled Kangra for over two centuries after the coming of Islam are almost unknown in history; their existence was shadowy and the dating of their reigns is tentative. Their coins are fairly scarce, not well-studied, and difficult to find.
