Slone-Inscription of the time of king Kundrapála of Kerale ncar Budamera in
MarwadDatert Samvat 1209.
Keråļu, is a small village ncar Ilåthamo under Bâuļamera in Mârwa!. It contains ruins of many temples, buildings &c., in one of which this inscription was found cut into a stone of pillar, It is a white stone which appears to have suffered a great deal from weather as well as other causes, which makes the inscription difficult to decipher properly. The stone mcasures 17 ft. by 17 ft. and contains twenty lines and a half of Sanskrit composition in modero Devanigari character, to the effect that on particular sacred days no life was to be taken under a penalty of fine to those lelonging to the royal family and of capital punishment to others. This order was passed under the auspices of King Kumarpåla, who had but recently ascended the throne of Gujarata. The date of the inscription is Samvat 1209, A. D. 1153.
