with the end of the loharas, vantideva was replaced by a new ruler named vuppadeva, who was apparently elected by the people, and who started the eponymous dynasty of the vuppadevas. vuppadeva was succeeded in 1181 ce by his brother jassaka, who then was succeeded by his son jagadeva, in 1199 ce. jagadeva attempted to emulate jayasimha but had a turbulent time, being at one stage forced out of his own kingdom by his officials. his death came by poison in 1212 or 1213 and his successors met with no more success; his son, rājadeva, survived until 1235 but any power that he may have had was shackled by the nobility; his grandson, samgrāmadeva, who ruled from 1235 to 1252, was forced out of the kingdom just as jagadeva had been and then killed soon after his return.
