c8.187

A.D. c. 750. About this date or later, two records in East Mysore speak of a battle that took place when the Western Ganga king Śrīpurusha-Muttarasa fought against the ‘Kāḍuveṭṭi’, i.e., the Pallava king of Kāñchi. Both are epitaphs of soldiers who fell in the fight. One of them was a grant by Śrīpurusha's son, Duggamāra Ereyappa, to the family of the deceased; and it mentions that the death occurred ‘when the army went to Kampli.’ Neither of these grants is dated. (E. C. ix, Hl., 21 ; x, Mb., 255.)
