C.-An incomplete grant of King Rapaka. This charter was originally engraved on two plates, but only the first of them has been recovered. It is much bigger in size than the other plates of this find, being 168" x 1211' in dimensions. Its weight is3174 tolas, which is almost equal to the combined weight of the three plates of Charter A. There are two holes at the bottom intended for the two rings for holding the plates together. The second plate as well as the two rings are untraceable.
There are 22 lines engraved on this plate. The engraving on no other plates of this set is go shabby, slipshod and careless as that on this plate. Every line teems with mistakes and oongideration of space renders their enumeration impossible here. They can be seen in the text and the appended footnotes. Apart froin mistakes of engraving, there are mistakes of pronunciation
1 Letters yama have been wrongly repeated. * The shortening of T is required for metrical purpose.
The res spelling is atka.
