No. 2.- VASANTGADH INSCRIPTION OF PURNAPALA;
THE VIKRAMA YEAR 1099.
1 Read 'ddh-Ambulak-. In line 16 of the grant A. the name is spelt Amoullaka. Read otpadyamánavishṭikah (or "edaktikah, which occurs often elsewhere). Read kalna.

BY PROFESSOR F. KIELHORN, C.I.E.; GÖTTINGEN.
About the year 1840 the stone, which bears this inscription, was taken by Captain T. S. Burt from a tank at Vasantgaḍhl in the Sirohi State of Rajputâna, and the inscription was published in Journ. As. Soc. Beng. Vol. X. p. 664 ff., from a very unsatisfactory transcript prepared by Pandit Kamalakanta. For a long time the stone seems to have been lost sight of; but it has lately been rediscovered by my indefatigable friend, Mr. Gaurishankar Hirachand Ojha of Udaipar, and is now deposited at the town of Sirohi. I re-edit the text from impressions which have been kindly sent to me by Mr. Ojha.

11 Vasantgadh (Basantgadh) apparently is situated to the east of Mount Abd, but I do not find it on the map of the Eajputana Agency. At or near the same place an important inscription of the time of king Varmalata, of the [Vikrama] year 682, has lately been discovered.
