PART A

donor of a pillar, mentioned in the inscription A 54. For bhātu cf. matu, dhitu p. XXVII (§33). In A 50 the Gen. sg. of naptṛ is natuno. It is, however, impossible to read the traces of the akshara following bhātu as no. The akshara may have been pa or ha as Dr. Sircar has suggested, and represent the initial consonant of the name of the donor.

A 54b; PLATE XXVII

ON a rail-bar, now in the Allahabad Municipal Museum (Ac/2972). Edited by Kala, Bh V. (1951), p. 33; Sircar, EI., XXXXIII (1959/60), p. 58.

TEXT:
[Na]garakhitasa cha mātu cha Kamuchukaye dānaṁ.

TRANSLATION:

Gift of Nagarakhita (Nāgarakshita) as well as of (his) mother^[1], the Kamuchukā (inhabitant of Kamuchu ?)^[2].

Similarly it is recorded in No. A 96b that the mother of Gośāla shared with her son in the expenses of a rail-bar.
_________________________

^[1]Cf. A 18, A 28, A 120.
^[2]Dr. Kala regards Kamuchukā as the name of the mother, whereas Dr. Sircar reads the second part of the inscription: cha mātu Chakamuchukaye dānaṁ “and (his) mother Chakramochikā”. He notes: “The word cha possibly suggests that the present epigraph was the second of a set of two inscriptions, the first recording a gift of Ngarakshita, while the inscription under study records only the gift of his mother.â
