Of the localities mentioned in the record Mahādvādasaka-maṇḍala must have comprised Udayapur and Bhilsă in the Gwalior State as far as Raisen1 (Rajasayana) to the south in the Bhopal State. The Udayapur stone inscription of V. S. 1229 calls it the Bhaillasvami-Mahādvadasakamandala. Vētravati is the modern Betwa and the temple of Bhâilasvamin which was situated on the Betwa, must have given rise to the name of the Bhilsa town. According to Dr. Hall, a fragmentary inscription which was originally discovered at Bhilsa, but is now no longer traceable, recorded the erection of a temple of the Sun god, under the name of Bhaillesa on the Vētravati, by one Vachaspati, a minister of Rajā Krishna, who is probably identical with the Paramara Väkpatirāja. I cannot identify the other localities mentioned in the record. Mr. Hamid, the Superintendent of Archæology, Bhopal State, remarks as follows in his note on this inscription, which has been referred to above: The temple of Bhailasvamin was situated on the banks of the Betwa river at Bhilsa in the Gwalior State, 34 miles from Bhopal and 8 miles from Sanchi. The village Dadarapadra is in the Bhopal territory. The name was obviously corrupted into Dharapadra, and later on into Padria, but as there are eleven villages of this name in the various districts of the Bhopal State, Dadarapadra of our inscription was given the name of Padria Raja Dhar to distinguish it from other Padrias."
