In the porch of the temple is an inscription of the time of Vijayāditya (A.D. 696—733) which records that the harlot, one of the king's concubines, Vinapotī, caused a pedestal of rubies and a silver umbrella to be made for the idol, and gave a field for its support. There is an inscription on another pillar, but it is not very plain and is of no interest.
