The Antiquities of Orissa v2.c16.146

v2.c16.146

The next word is *nandarāja*, ‘king Nanda’; next, *nivāsata*, ‘from his home’, Sanskrit *nivasāt*; then *ughāṭita*, ‘having expelled’, Sanskrit, *udghāṭita*; then *tana*, for *tena*, ‘by him’. Then follow the words *taraliya*, ‘quick moving’, *vāja* for *vājī*, ‘horse’, Punāḍi, a proper name, *nagara*, ‘a city’, and *pavesa*, ‘to enter’; the rest is lost. The sentence as far as legible may be rendered thus : “And now in the fifth year, king Nanda having been, by him, expelled from home, went away on a swift horse to the city of Punāḍi”.
