³ For sambadhyamānaka, see Lalitapuravāla-sambadhyamānaka-Tauḍā-grāme (ibid., Vol. XXXI, p. 312, text line 8). In the charters of the Bhauma-Karas of Orissa, a distinction is generally made between the subordinates and officers of the district or province and those of a village or a group of villages; e.g., Dakṣiṇa-Tosalāyāṁ vartamāna-bhavisya-mahāsāmanta-rājasatka-rājaputra-kumārāmāty-auparika-viṣayapati-tadāyuktaka-dāṇḍapāśika-sthānāntari kān=anyān=api rāja-prasādina=ścāṭa-vallabha-jātīyān=Tamura-viṣaya-Paścima-khaṇḍe mahāmahattara-brhadbhogi-pustakapāla-kūṭakolas-ādy-adhikaraṇam yathārhaṁ mānayati bodhayati samājñāpayati ca. Here the local officers of the western sub-division of the Tamura district have been mentioned separately from the subordinates and officers associated with the province of South Tosalā in which Tamura-viṣaya was situated.
