No. 25.] TALEGAON COPPER-PLATES OF KRISHNA-RAJA I; SAKA 690. 279
Of the villages included in the grant Kumārigrama is the present Karehgãon; Bhamaropara is Bhowrapur; Aralava Uruli; Sindigrama Seendowneh, and Tadavale Turudee. Of the surrounding villages Khambhagrama is Khamgaon; Vōrimagrama Boree, and Däḍimagrāma Daleemb; Alandiya is Alandi, or more commonly Chōra-chi Alandi, a station on the Madras and Southern Maraṭhā Railway, 15 miles south-east of Poona, and Thiuragrama is Theur. The river Maila is the present Mula, or more properly that river after its confluence with the Mutha at Poona, whence it winds east till it reaches the Bhima. Mr. Bhandarkar states that it passes to the north of the villages contained in the grant. The Khadiravēņa hills, finally, have not retained their old name. I am unable to add anything to this information, which is due to Mr. Bhandarkar, as no large scale map is at my disposal.
The writer of the inscription was, so far as I can make out, Indra, the same person who wrote the Samangaḍ grant of Dantidurga.
