1 Read Sak-abdě nava-bat-ashtabiti-samvatsarē.
[In this context, S has Jayantyapura-väsina[b] ...Rapaka-bri-Niyarnsavasya sulab, etc., while M has Jayantyapure sthita......Ranaka-bri-Bhimakhedisya auta, eto. The intended reading here therefore soens to be Dantapure sthitasya ......Ranaka-bri-Bhimakhedikasya suta°, etc. The dandas are superfluous. Dantapura of this record is very probably a variant of Jayantyapura which was the headquarters of the Kadamba feudatories of the Eastern Gangas.-Ed.]
Read mahababd-ä°.
Read khedi-suta°.
* Read kusalinah.
[In this context, S has prakritir-ally-a)miya-pañcha-pätra-rajapädopajivinah......manayati vo(boldhayati samijääpayati, while M has pañcha-patra-visa(visha)yapratha(dha)na-samasta-rajapädopajivina(nab), etc. Some letters are therefore omitted in the present record by the soribe or engraver through oversight.-Ed.]
7 [In correct Sanskrit: Madagrāmaḥ vyapari-Pröllamasya sulaya Vithanaya Reuchiya-nayakasya sutāya Paadavakaya cha dvi-bhagam kritvä.-Ed.]
Read udaka-pūrvakaṁ.
• Read tämrasāsanīkritya.
10 Read pradatto-smābhiḥ.
From this point I have merely given the text without any attempt to correct it except where there is an obvious mistake.
13 [The intended readings for a-chata-bhafa, chandraka and vardhaě appear to be respectively a-chata-bhaja. pravě bam, chandr-arka-kahiti-sama-kala-paryantam and mala-pitror-atmanas-cha puny-abhivriddhaye as suggested by 8.-Ed.]
[This defective passage seems to suggest that a person named Chedi had something to do with Vithana's share of the gift land.-Ed.]
14 Read didi here as well as in the following lines.
15 Bead sila here as well as in the following lines.
14 Read ropita here as well as in the following lines. Read nairydyash.
