EPIGRAPHIA INDICA.
[VOL. XXI.
that the date of Lakshmanasēna's accession was 1178 A. D. arrived at from the date of Sridhara's Sadukti-Karnamrita, which is stated to be Saka 1127 and the 27th year of Lakshmanasena's reign.-Ed.]
The data of the grant was the Sandhivigrahika Tripurarinatha. The Govindapur plate,1 dated Sari 2, the 28th day of Bhādra, the Anulis plate, dated Sam 3, the 9th day of Bhādra, all belonging to Lakshmanasēna state that the Sändhivigrahika Nārāyaṇadatta was the executor of these grants. Apparently he was succeeded in that office by Tripurarinatha between the 3rd and 6th years of Lakshmanasena's reign.
