Their names were "Alias Raj" and "Ullas Raj." Ullas Raj settled in the mountains, while Alias Raj settled in the Kathmandu Valley. Ullas Raj became a Parbatiya: (literally, a "hill dweller") because he settled in the mountains. Alias Raj became a Newar because he settled in the Valley.〔Levy, Robert I. Mesocosm: Hinduism and the Organization of a Traditional Newar City in Nepal. Berkeley: University of California Press, c1990 1990. http://ark.cdlib.org/ark:/13030/ft6k4007rd/ 〕 The successive Muslim invasions in Kannauj and other surrounding areas during the eleventh and twelfth centuries forced many Hindus to migrate into nearby places including Nepal. The migration of Rajopadhyaya have great influence or relation to those Muslims invasions.
