At the Mānbhāvas temple at Vāghli is a long inscription recording the erection of a temple of Siva, a *sattra* or hall of charity, and a well by a prince Gōvinda or Gōvindarāja. It also records certain endowments and gifts to the same by king Seunachandra II. in A.D. 1069. The inscription gives a dynasty of petty chiefs who ruled for about four hundred years previously, and who are said to have come from Dvārakā.
