EPIGRAPHIA INDICA 54 ; K. 55= M. 44 ; K. 56= M. 57 ; K. 57 = M. 59 ; K. 58 = M. 58 ; K. 59= M. 60. M. 56, which is only a repetition of v. 37, occurs in K. once only. In neither case any principle seems to have been followed in arranging the verses. Under these circumstances I have thought it unnecessary to publish in full the text of this inscription ; but I have given all the various readings which it presents in the notes on the text of the Maṅgalagiri inscription. The last verse records that in the Śaka year to be counted by the Vasus (8), the fires (3), the Vêdas (4), and the moon (1), (i.e. Śaka-Saṁvat 1438), the minister Appa built a plastered hall (maṇṭapa) at the temple of Agastyêśa at Nallapâṭi. Nallapâḍu, the Nelapadu of the map, is 15 miles north of Guṇṭûr. According to Mr. Sewell’s Lists of Antiquities, Vol. I. p. 75, there are several temples in that village. The map shows another Nallapadu 4 miles west of Guṇṭûr, but no remains of temples seem to exits at this place.
