Besides the *Kulyavāpa*, *Droṇavāpa* and *Ādhavāpa*, some other land measures are known from the post-Gupta inscriptions discovered in Bengal.² The Belwa plate³ of Vigrahapāla III (third quarter of the 11th century A.D.) speaks of a locality which was divided into two parts, one of which measuring 1 *Kulya* 2 *Droṇas* 3 1/4 *Ādhavāpas* and 3 1/2 *Udamānas* was left out, while the second part measuring 3 *Kulyas* 7 1/2 *Droṇas* and 11 *Udamānas* was made the subject of a grant. The land granted by the Amgachi plate⁴ of the same king seems to have measured 6 *Kulyas* 2 *Droṇas* 1 1/4 *Ādhavāpas* 2 *Udamānas* and 3 *Kākiṇīs*.
