The whole plate is extremely faulty in respect of language and spelling. That is why some letters, though apparently distinct, could not be properly read. Only a few mistakes have been corrected, and the numerous mistakes in the common benedictory stanzas have been left unnoticed.
The reading and identification of these names are very difficult. Rõngada, if this be the correct reading, I cannot identify; villages with names such as Burabaga, Kurabaga, etc. are found far off, but none in the neighbourhood; Gudhvamalakhandakshetra perhaps denotes a plot of laud which is mal in character. In the Sambalpur District we find four general classes of land-mäl, bähäl, bērna and at; cf. Bengal District Gazetteers, Volume XVI, Sambalpur, p. 107.
10 -khata- is a sanskritized form of khad, straw.
11-khaila- means 'a pit.'
13-padra- is perhaps the vernacular pada which is used in the district with the meaning of "fallow land." The a-stroke is written at the beginning of the following line.
