This Anusvára is a mistake.
17 This mark of punctuation is unnecessary; especially standing, as it does, in the middle of a word. no. dvitiya.
10 The second k is here represented, somewhat unasually, by an almost entire ka below the upper one, instead of by a stroke across the lower part of the upper ka. A similar instance, occurs in arkka, in 1. 18 of the Nirpan grant, No. LXXVI., Vol. IX. pp. 123ff.
These two letters, graha, were engraved over two other letters that had been engraved and partially cancelled by beating in.
This line is in current-hand characters. They differ somewhat from those of the attestation of the Umêtå grant.-The attestation of No. CXL. also is in current-hand characters; they approach more to those of the Umêta grant, than to those of the present grant. The attestation of the Ilão grant, No. CXLI., is not in current-hand characters.
The context is (1. 31) Sri-Daddaḥ kusali sarvváneva.. (1.32) samanubodhayati. All the genealogical portion, down to 1. 25, is of the nature of a paren
thesis.
