			Legend and bardic tradition attribute the construction of the water tank (Chitrakut Kund) at Chittorgarh to a Mori king named Chitrangada, considered the eponymous founder of Chittor.

			The dynasty came to an end during the 8th century AD when the last known Mori ruler, Mana Mori, was defeated by Bappa Rawal, a Guhila prince who went on to establish the Sisodia dynasty of Mewar. This episode is often cited as the transition point from Mori to Guhila rule in southern Rajasthan.
