Family Tree of Samma Kings

Chronology[]

The main sources of information on the Samma dynasty are Nizammud-din, Abu-'l-Fazl, Firishta and Mir Ma'sum, all lacking in detail, and with conflicting information. A plausible reconstruction of the chronology[1] is given in the History of Delhi Sultanate by M.H. Syed:[2]
