1 The inscription is almost entirely illegible. The date given in Mys. Invor, is quite incorrect. • The greater part of the inscription is illegible.
I owe an account of this inscription to Dr. Fleet; for some fantastic characters in it see Ind. Ant. Vol. XV. p. 864.
• But compare Dr. Fleet's Dynasties, p. 468, note 4
Sliddhana really does not occur in these dates; see Ind. Ant. Vol. XXX. p. 208, note 29.
• The two inscriptions are identical, one being in Nigart and the other in Kanarese characters; compare above, No. 48. Both (called spala-idiana) are perhaps copies of a copper-plate inscription.
* Compare above, No. 254.
