which monks are known to have been in sindh in the second half of the 12th century ad?
Answer
The monk most clearly known to have been in Sindh in the second half of the 12th century AD is
Jinadatta Suri (also called
Dadaji). A Jain source describes him as journeying into Sindh, and another medieval Jain account lists
Uchchha (Sindh) among the places he visited. (

Explanation
Jinadatta Suri was a major Kharatara Śvetāmbara acharya, active in the 12th century. In the material I found, the
Sindh-specific reference is strongest for him. The same broader tradition also speaks of
Jinachandra Suri and
Jinapati Suri as important 12th-century Kharatara monks, but I did not find as clear a Sindh reference for them in the sources I checked. (

Takeaway
So, if you want the single clearest name, it is
Jinadatta Suri. (
