No. 43.- TIDGUNDI PLATES OF THE TIME OF VIKRAMADITYA VI.;
[CHALUKYA-]VIKRAMA-SAMVAT 7.
BY F. KIELHORN, PH.D., LL.D., C.I.E.; GÖTTINGEN, These plates were found, about thirty-five years ago, at the village of Tiągundi, about twelve miles north of the city of Bijapur, in the Bijapur tâluka of the Bijapur district of the
1 Originally ordjyd appears to have been engraved. The following sign of punctuation is superficous. . Read -pinirggató and prasát6.
# This word chadaka is not Sanskrit; it probably is connected with the root chat, 'to break,' and apparently the whole diruda is equivalent to aribalanishidang. Compare also the Marath chadaka, s slap, a stroke.'
* Ndman is quite superfluous here; its sense is contained in the following samastardjdeals.
. Read -tánakah; but the words in the whole phrase, beginning with tatpadapadm-6pajff in line 4, should really have been put in the Locative. The following sign of punctuation is again superfluous.
6 This word and the following words in the Nominative case, qualifying as they do Vasudéréna in line 9, should have been put in the Instrumental
7 This sign of visarga was originally omitted. * Read -fdkhayáin, or perhaps rather -Idkhly.
. Read ryb. 20 Panatt and let in the following compound are clearly closely related to and synonymous with the Maritht panatu, great-grandson,' and nati, grandson;' the Sanskrit words would be pronaptd kod naptá.
11 The first akshara of this name might also be read ood or, perhaps, gh6; the lost akshara was originally pau, but has been altered to pai.
12 Read -putro.
On the termination of this and of some of the following words see my remarks on page 304 above.
14 The akshara in brackets may possibly be nyd. I do not understand the exact meaning of this compound; perhaps it has reference to religious observances on the 12th day (drddaft) of the two balves of the mouth.
15 Read Narasimha'.
16 Intended for grilitani bhimi-nivarttandni doddala. On the construction of the numerola here and below compare Ind. Ant. Vol. XVI. p. 207.
17 Probably intended for etd bhimayah pratipaditaḥ.
