North Indian Inscriptions |
INSCRIPTIONS OF THE KALACHURIS OF SARAYUPARA Avasthi, Thathauli and Baonpār respectively, being situated within a couple of miles from Ṭikari. Of the places of residence or origin of the Brāhmaṇa donees, Kahalla is clearly Kahla where the plates were discovered. Kulāñcha, as stated elsewhere,¹ is mentioned in several records as the place of residence of Sāmavēdi Brāhmaṇas of the Śāṇḍilya gōtra and has been identified by Rao Bahadur K.N. Dikshit, with Kulāncha in the Bogra District of North Bengal. Nikhatīgrāmȧ may be Nāktauli, about a mile to the north-east of Ṭikari and Mahuālī, Mahōliā, seven miles west of Dhuriāpāra. Mathurā is of course too well-known to need identification. Sāṅkasasthāna may be ancient Sāṅkāśya now represented by the village Saṅkisa, 40 miles north-west of Kanauj. The other places I am unable to locate. TEXT ²
