The legendarykings of Denmark are the predecessors of Gorm the Old , half history and half legend. The accounts of the Danish kings are confusing and contradictory, and so this presentation tries to separate the various sources from each other. They sometimes mention the same kings. Rig and Scylding line Early kings of the Rig and Scylding lines, mentioned by multiple sources Dan king Dan mikill ti, son of Danp He is brother in law of Domar . Fr i mikill ti, son of Dan Mikillati Halfdan , son of Fr i Hrothgar Roar , 6th century?, son of Halfdan Halga Helge , 6th century?, son of Halfdan Hr lf Kraki , son of Helga After Hr lf Kraki no two sources give the same succession. Adam of Bremen Adam of Bremen mentions several kings from the 10th century preceding Gorm the Old . He claims Sweyn II of Denmark Svend Estridson as his source. Many of these are also confirmed by other sources.

Chola history The lists of legendary early Chola kings are recorded in Tamil language Tamil literature and in the inscriptions left by the later Chola kings. Chola Empire The genealogy of the Chola empire as found in the Tamil literature and in the many inscriptions left by the later Chola kings contains a number of kings recorded for whom there is no verifiable historic evidence. There are as many versions of this lineage as there are sources for them. The main sources are a the Sangam literature particularly Purananuru , religious literature such as Periapuranam , semi biographical poems of the later Chola period such as the Kalingathuparani written during the Kulothunga Chola I and in the temple and cave inscription and Tamil Copper plate inscriptions copper plate grants left by medieval Cholas. Irrespective of the source, no list of the kings has a high level of historic fact and, while they generally are similar to each other, no two lists are exactly the same. Modern historians consider these lists not as historically reliable sources but as comprehensive conglomerations of various Hindu deities and Puranic characters attributed to local chieftains and invented ancestry of the Cholas of the Vijayalaya Chola Vijayalaya dynasty attempting to re establish their legitimacy and supremacy in a land they were trying to conquer.
