No. 12-MADRAS MUSEUM PLATE OF BHUVANATRINETRA
(1 Plate)
P. B. DESAI, OOTACAMUND A set of five copper plates was received from the Superintendent, Government Museum, Madras, in the office of the Superintendent for Epigraphy in 1935-36. They were strung together on & bare elliptical ring and gave the appearance that the whole formed one set. But on decipherment of the writing, it was found that they comprised three distinct records" belonging to different rulers.
Better read châta-bhata usually found in this context in epigraphlo reobrds. Read Onat-cha. Better read Sriyādēvy-Arkkēśvaradēvayoh.
These inscriptions have been noticed as Nós. 5 to 7 of Appendix A in the Annual Report on South Indian Epigrapky for 1935-36. The first two of these records belong to the Rõnadu Chola chiefs, Srikantha Chola and Balliya Chola Mahārāja. They have been published in the Journal of Indian History, Vol. XV, pp. 80-49 and 265 ff. and plates.
