INSCRIPTIONS OF THE SILAHARAS OF NORTH KONKAN
the Bhiwaṇḍī tālukā of the Ṭhāṇā District. Nāgāmbā, which bounded it on the south, may
be Nāgāva, which lies 1.60 km. to the south. Kāṭiyālaka may be Kāṭaī, which lies in its vicinity. Fleet identified Pūagambā with Pogaon, ‘half a mile east by north from Chāvindrē.’
Tōkabalāpallikā, the second donated village, cannot now be traced, but one of its boundary
villages Talāvalīpallikā, may be Talavalī in the Ṭhāṇā tālukā. Similarly, Kalibalāyachōlī,
which formed the northern boundary of the third donated village, may be the same as
Kōlivalī about 10 km. north of Bhiwaṇḍī. The other places cannot be identified.[1]
Text[2]
First Plate

__________________________________________________________________
It seems from Fleet’s remarks in Ep. Ind. Vol. XII, p. 252, n. 2, that a transcript of the first plate of this
grant was published in the Asiatic Researches, Vol. I (fifth ed.1806). That edition is not available to me.
The text of the first plate is deciphered from the facsimile facing page 357 in the Asiatic Researches, Vol. I
(Reprint, 1801), and that of the remaining plates is restored with the aid of the English translation of
the grant in that volume (pp. 359-367) and subsequent grants of the Śilāhāras.
