1 He is surnamed Birudanka-Rama; compare Birudanka-Bhima in No. 568. The original has Bhillamámmamanamvuva-kahitibhritam.
I believe this to be the king of whom three inscriptions (of S. 1071, 1072 and 1075) are mentioned in the Bombay Gazetteer, Vol. XIII. Part II. p. 426. This inscription contains only 9 short lines and is for the most part written in a kind of old Marathi. It contains the usual curse of the ass and the woman, but no sculpture.
The Bombay As. Soc. has another inscription (from Bassein) of Mallikarjuna, the date of which I cannot make out with confidence. In it Mallikarjuna is described as Mahasamantadhipati, Tagarapura-paraméivara and Si(i)ldhara-naréndra. The inscription contains a sculpture of an ass and a woman.
The date is given wrongly in Ind. Ant. Vol. IX. p. 40, note 62.
Lines 22-24 are "in the local dialect of the Konkana language of the period. Below the inscription is a rude sculpture of an ass and a woman."
The inscription contains a sculpture of an ass and a woman.
See Dr. Bhandarkar's Early History of the Dekkan, p. 115. These plates belonged to Mr. Wathen; they are now lost, 16 For pravartamáné.
