NEULPUR GRANT OF SUBHAKARA : THE 8TH YEAR.
I have found two insoriptions of a king named Såntikura-déva in Oriegs. One is in the Gapela-gumpbă in Khandagiri in the Part District, and the other in a small cave near Asoka's rock inscription at Dhauli in the same district. The Khapdagiri inscription has already been published above. Most probably this Santikara-dēva belonged to the same family av Subhåkaja-dėva.
I edit the record from the original plate.
