EPIGRAPHIA INDICA
4 na kurttakā(k-o)pahārak-ādi kāfaṁ [|*] Ki[ha].[1] [d]evakulasa Bhaṭṭa[ā][2] . . .
TRANSLATION (Lines 1-4) May it be well. Presents of woollen carpets and other (presents) have been made by Siṁhavarman who belongs to the Pallavas (i.e. the Pallava family), is .. dhara, and belongs to the Bhāradvāja gotra, in favour of the tairthikas (probably, priests of the temple) of the lord, the illustrious Jīvaśivasvāmin, after having performed śānti and svastyayana for his own victory (and) the increase of his merits and prowess. (Lines 4-5) ....... at the feet of the Bhaṭṭāraka . . . . . . in the temple of Kihatthi (?) . . . . . . . _________________________________________________
[1] The first akshara may also be read as ka and the second as pa. The last akshara of the name of the devakula
looks like tthi, so that the name may be Kihatthi. But, if the second letter is pa, there was possibly another
akshara between this and the last letter.
