Around 973 AD, Tailapa II, a former Rashtrakuta feudatory, overthrew Kakka II and re-established Chalukya rule in the Deccan, founding the Later (Western) Chalukya dynasty.
Amoghavarsha I, Govinda III and Krishna III were earlier, powerful Rashtrakuta kings and were not the ruler overthrown by Tailapa II.
