(10) 'When that king (king Harihara's son Deva-Rāya) of men was ruling the kingdom in peace and wisdom, shining in beauty beyond all countries was the entire Karnṇāṭa province; and in that Karnṇāṭa country famous was the Gutti-nāḍ, which contained eighteen Kampaṇas in which the most famous nāḍ was '" Nāgara-khaṇḍa "' to which Kuppaṭūr was an ornament, owing to the settlement of the Bhavyas (or Jains), and its Chaityālayas, beautiful with lotus ponds, pleasure gardens and fields of gandha-śāli rice. (Further description of its attractions).'—(*Ep. Carnat.*, Vol. VIII, Part I, Sorab Taluq, no. 261; Roman Text, p. 82; Transl., p. 41.)
