ADDITIONAL INSCRIPTIONS OF THE SILAHARAS

____________________________________________
[1] Metre : Vasantatilakā.
[2] See No. 11, lines 23-25.
[3] Metre : Śārdūlavikrīḍita.
[4] See No. 9, lines 14-16. Metre : Indravajrā.
[5] Natu’s text has सहजगरुडध्वज, in which the two सहजविधाधर and सुवर्णगरुडध्वज have been combined.
[6] Natu’s text has वंदिजनभतुलजगद्वंद्यगजांकुश. Nothing corresponding to वंदिजन...वंद्य occurs in other cognate
records. For कलिगजांकुश, see No. 60, line 27.
[7] Natu’s text महामात्यश्रीराजगुरुमहामहोपाध्यायरामपांडेत before श्रीनागणैय. Nāgaṇaiya was, no doubt, a Mahāmātya
of Chhittarāja, but titles like Mahāmahopādhyāya were not current in that age. So the whole expre-
ssion has been omitted.
[8] His name occurs elsewhere as दद्धपैय.
[9] Natu’s text has आरामगुमौ, which is evidently a mistake for आरामगुम्मे. गुम्म seems to mean a tax
on a cluster of trees.
[10] Read श्रीपद्मलदेवी तस्या आदेशेन.
[11] Natu’s text reads महाजनप्रमुखमनानाम्। which is evidently incorrect.
[12] This is evidently a mistake for पूगीफलवृक्षशतं प्रती or पूगीवृक्षशतं प्रती. There could not have been a tax
of four drammas on a hundred areca-nuts !
[13] Natu’s text here also has गुमौ, which is clearly a mistake for गुम्मे. Gumma (derived from gulma) seems
to mean ‘a tax on a cluster of trees’. It occurs in lines 29-30 of the Dive Āgar plates of Chhittarāja
(No. 10, above).
[14] Natu’s text has खखा न करणीया.
