1 The danda is superfluous. * Redho was originally engraved.
Elsewhere (above, Vol. XXVIII, p. 240) we preferred the roading Sarapurarlacha suggesting that Anantavarman's chief city named Sarapura became famous as Kolahala. But the idea sooms to be that both Anantavarman and his capital (not named) booamo famous under the name Kolabala.
