Kanswa, also spelled Kansua, is a village in the Kota district of Rajasthan, India. It is of archaeological importance.[1] It is the site where James Tod found an inscription in 1820 AD that reveals the rule of Raja Shalinder in Kota region in 5th century AD.[2]

The Dabok stone inscription, dating back to Gupta Samvat 407 (circa 725 AD), records events during the reign of Dhavalappadeva. This ruler is likely identified with Dhavala, a prince from the Maurya dynasty mentioned in the Kanswa inscription of Vikrama Samvat 795 (738 AD).[3]
