Probably the 6th October A.D. 1009, with a lunar eclipse, visible in India.7
In the Chalukya lineage, after 59 kings at Ayodhyâ etc., there was Jayasimhavallabha [I.] (who conquered the Rashtrakuta Krishna's son Indra); his son Raparåga; his son Pulakêsin [I.], (lord of Vâtâpipuri); his son Kirtivarman [I.] ; his younger brother Mangalisa; his elder brother's son [Pulakêsin II.] Satyasraya (conquered Harsha [of Kanauj]); his son Neḍamari; his son Adityavarman; his son Vikramaditya [I]; his son Yuddhamalla; his son Vijayaditya; his son Vikramaditya [II.] ; his son Kirtivarman [II.] ; a brother (named Bhima ?) of Vikramaditya [II.]; his son Kirtivarman [III.] ; his son Taila[I.] ; his son Vikramaditya [III.], ; his son Bhima; his son Ayyana [1.], married a daughter of Krishna; their son Vikramaditya [IV.], married Bonthâdêvî, a daughter of the Chêdi Lakshmana; their son Taila [II.] (conquered the Rashtrakutas
But the original seems distinctly to quote the bright fortnight. For the 8th of the bright half of Âśvina the date would be Sunday, 12th September A.D. 997.
For Satyasraya the inscriptions also have Sattiga and Sattims; see Dr. Fleet's Dynasties, p. 432. See ibid. p. 432, and above, No. 143. Put on the stone in A.D. 1052-53.
See Dr. Fleet's Dynastics, p. 436, note 1; p. 439, note 1 ; and p. 567; and compare below, No. 154. • This is the true reading of the original, verified by Dr. Fleet.
7 In the year Saumya of the date this is the only lunar eclipse that was visible in India.
In one of the introductory verses the grant glorifies a king named Akalankacharita, who would naturally be understood to be Vikramaditya V.; but the name was a biruda of Irivabeḍanga Satyasraya.
