the family of the Yatia kings. A genealogy of the vamsa ( dynasty ) in proge follows, beginning with Raula Sri Jaitasimha, with Raula Sci Duda interposed between Ratnasimha and Ghatasimha. Kehari is here called Kesari. The genealogy ends with Vairasimha. A pattayali of the Kharatara Vidhipaksha of the Chandra kula (a sect of the Jainas ) follows, beginning with Vardhamana. It meations a few facts, literary and others, in connection with many of the names, most of which facts are well-known. The following may be noted :
That Jinadatta (the successor of Jigavallabha) had the title Yugapradhana given him bę Ambikadevi. This is referred to in Jayasagara's commentary on Jinadatta's Samdehadolavali.
The pattavali ends with Jinabhadra. Jinarardhana has been omitted, naturally for the reason given in Klatt's Onomasticon (page 34). Jinabhadra's character, learning and teaching are praised. By his advice Viharas ( temples) were built and idols: put up in various places and in places like Anahillapataka, the Vidhipaksha Sraddhasamgha formed treasures of pearls of knowledge f libraries ). His feet, the inscription says, are worshipped by the kings Vairisimha, Tryambakadasa and Kshitindra.
A genealogy is then given of the builders who were of the Chopada gotra, Ukesa vamsa. In Samvat 1487 they performed a pilgrimage to Satrumjaya and Raiyata and made the Panchamyuddyapana in 1490. By the advice of Jinabhadra they built this temple in 149$ during the reign of Vairisimha. The festivities in connection with the pratishtha took place in Samvat 1497, when Jinabhadra put up 300 idols of Sambhavanatha and others, Sambhavanatha being the Mulanayaka among them. Vairisimha took part in the festivities. Then a wish is expressed for the victory, throughout the three worlds, of some Jinakusala Munindra of the Kharatara Vidhipaksha. Thé Prasasti was composed by Vachanacharya Somakunjara, pupil of Vachaka Jayasagara.
