No. 29.- KOLHAPUR INSCRIPTION OF THE SILAHARA BHOJA II.;
SAKA-SAMVAT 1112-1115.
Br F. KIELHORY, PR.D., C.I.E.; GÖTTINGEN. The stone which contains this inscription, was found built into the wall of the house of Annacharya Pandit, in the enclosure of the temple of Ambåbåt, and is now deposited in the town-hall, of the city of Kolhapur. An account of the contents of the inscription and a kind of facsimile of the text are given in Major Graham's Statistical Report of the Principality of Kolhapoor, p. 398. I now edit it from a good impression, supplied to me by Dr. Fleet.
The inscription contains 23 lines of writing which covers a space of about 2' 31" broad by 2' 23" high. Down to line 14 the writing is on the whole well preserved, but the lower lines
1 Metre : sloka (Anushțubh). Metre : Sardúlavikridita.
Originally -tapnusha was engraved, • Metre : S10ka (Anushțubb); and of the next four verses.
The akshara ta of pataka was originally omitted, and is engraved above the line.
• The second akshara (ve) is slightly damaged, but I bare no doubt that the actual reading of the original is gayd I am unable to explain this word. 7 Metre : Rathôddhat.
These two signs of punctuation are superfluous.
