HULGUR INSCRIPTION OF KHOTTIGA, SAKA 893 Mārasingadēva was identical with Mārasinghayya of the present record. Another chief named Maņalera Gādiga is stated to have been the nāl-gāvunda of Purigere in an undated record of Amoghavarsha from Shiggaon, Mr. N. L. Rao has identified this king with Amoghavarsha IV Kakka (972-73 A. D.) and consequently Manalera Gädiga has been regarded by him as a descendant of Maņalera of the Atakūr record referred to above. But, as I have shown elsewhere,' the Shiggaon inscription should be ascribed to the reign of Amāghavarsha I (814-78 A. D.) and therefore Mañalera Gädiga would be a predecessor of both Mañalera of the Ātakūr inscription and Mārasinghayya of the present record. It may, however, be stated that one cannot be certain about the relationship of these chiefs until definite proof is forthcoming.
The geographical names mentioned in the record are Gangavāļi-96,000, Kisukādu-70, Purigere-300, Beļvola-300 and Pullungūr, the first four of which are quite well known. Pullurgür is evidently the modern Hulgür where the inscription was discovered.
