Kachula[ya] .. .. .. .. bhāriyāya dānaṁ^[3]

TRANSLATION:
The gift of Kachulā (Kañchulā ?)^[4], the wife ofâ¦..

The four or five aksharas missing before bhāriyāya must have contained the name of the husband of the donatrix, whose own name seems to have been Kachulā, cf. Chāpadevāya Revatimitabhāriyāya No. A 34. Barua-Sinha’s restoration is wrong.

^[1]For donations of women whose native places have been mentioned see No. A 9 (fragmentary), A 10, A 14, A 15, A 18-20, A 27, A 28, A 32-35, A 45, A 46, A 48, A 49, A 53.
^[2]See classification II, 2, b (name derived from mental disposition and temperament).
^[3]From Cunningham’s eye-copy. In the transcript the first word is given as Kachulasa, but the fourth akshara may be a mutilated ya.
^[4]See classification II, 1, b (names derived from dress).
^[5]Lüders’ treatment of this inscription is missing.
^[6]To the right of the lower portion of the letter ḍā the estampage shows a dot which could be read as ṃ if it were not so low. It is perhaps only accidental. Koḍāya is probably a clerical error for Koḍiyāya.
