THE INDIAN ANTIQUARY
[MARCH, 1913.
Ashâdha of the Vikrama year 1030, which no doubt represents the date of the composition of thi inscription, as Prof. Kielhorn rightly thinks:
The Maharajadhiraja Simharaja, having bathed in the Pushkara tirtha, granted the villages: (1) Simhagoshtha in the Tanakupaka group of twelve, his personal possession, (2-3) Traikalakakar and 1sânakupa in the Pattavaddhaka vishaya and (4) Kaņhapallika in the Sarahkoţta vishaya : his brother Vatsaraja, the village Kardamak hâta in the Jayapura vishaya, his present possession ; the king Vigrabaraja, the villages Chhatradhârâ and Samkaranaka referred to in verse 25; Simharaja's other sons Chandraraja and Govindraja, one village (grāma), one hamlet (pallika), and two wards or localities of town (pataka) from the Pattavaddhaka and Darbhakaksha vishayas ; Dhanduka, an official of Simharaja's, the village Mayura padra in the Khajakupa vishaya ; and a certain Jayaniraja, the village Kolikûpaka. Likewise, for the benefit of the temple, one minisepaka on every kutaka of salt at Sakambhari was assigned by the Bhammaba guild, and one dramma On every horse by horse-dealers of the north. Besides, fields were given by various pious people in the villages of Maddipurika, Nimbadika, Marupallika, Harsha and-kalavanapadra
of the places mentioned in the list, Pushkara tirtha near Ajmer is well-known. Sakambhari is, of course, Sâmbhar, on the borders of the Jedhpur and Jaipur States and famous for its salt lake. of the names of the provinces Tunakupaka is Tunu, Pattavaddhaka Patoda, and Darbhakaksha Dhakas-all in the Sikar principality. Kbattakúpa is obviously Khard in Sambhar Nizamat, Jaipur State, and Sarahkota Sargot in Marot, Jodhpur. Jayapura is suggested by Kielhorn to be the modern Jaipur. But this is impossible as this town was founded by Jaisimba II. in A.D. 1728. As regards the names of places, Simhagoshtha is simhot, Lianakupa probably Dishnu. Kanhapallika Kansar, Kolikupa Kolida, Maddaparika Madavra.Nimbadilka Nimedi botb at the foot of the Haras hill and Marupallika Maroli-all in the Sikar Chiefship.
