c8.189

A.D. 750, April 21. Jāvaḷi C. P. grant of the village of Beḷḷūr in Western Mysore to Brahmans by the W. Ganga king Śrīpurusha, in his twenty-fifth year. The date is correct as to the Nakshatra, but the week day, Tuesday, is given as Monday. This may be held not to invalidate the date, and if so it fixes this king's accession as in the year following April 21, 725. If so, the dates fixed by Fleet and Dubreuil and given in the genealogical tables in this volume are too late, (See s.v., A.D. 776-77 below.)
