	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: India
		South of this extended the Moslem sultanates of Ahmednagar, Bidar, Golconda, and Bijapur, south of which lay their enemy, the Indian confederacy of Vijayanagar.
		The latter power was irrecoverably defeated by the former in the battle of Talikot (1565).
		The barrier which had withstood the Moslem power for three centuries was thus removed; and this prepared the way to an extension southwards as far as Mysore -- the sway of the southern princes having now declined so as to become almost negligible.

	SOMOS PRIMOS: Spanish Patriots in the American Revolution
		To the French, Les Saintes, with its loss of more than 3100 killed or captured, was not a climactic battle which changed the course of naval warfare, but just a setback which had little effect on the outcome of the war.
		Peace negotiations went on while concentration of battle forces for the Jamaica operation continued, as well as a hot naval and land war in and near India, and a privateering and profiteering war in Western Hemisphere.
		Naval buffs all remember the battle at Les Saintes, where British Admiral Rodney captured French Admiral de Grasse, but few would recall that de Grasse saved the troops he was moving into position for the Jamaica invasion.

	Tara: Her Origins and Development
		Despite the efforts of B.rhaspati to recover her and even Brahmaa's command that she be returned, Soma refused to relinquish her.
		A mighty battle for the recovery of Taaraa then followed and this battle was so fierce that 'the Earth, shaken to its very centre, cried out for protection'.[38] Taaraa was eventually restored to her husband and later gave birth to Budha (the planet Mercury), who turns out to be the child of Soma.
		Very similar tales are told of Venus, Ishtar and Isis, which Velikovsky links to a series of cosmic disturbances involving our planet in the second millennium B.C.E. and again in the 8th century B.C.E.[39]
