A number of epigraphs of the time of the ’Adil Shāhī Sulṭāns are written in Marāṭhī.⁷ Among bilingual inscriptions written in Marāṭhī and another language, mention may be made of the Kandarpur plate⁸ of the Yādava king Jaitugi (1191-1210 A.D.) and the Lepakshi (Anantapur District) temple inscription⁹ of the 16th century, both in Kannaḍa and Marāṭhī, the Cuddapah Telugu-Marāṭhī inscription¹⁰ of 1689 A.D. and several Persian and Marāṭhī inscriptions.¹¹ The Dabhoi inscription¹² of 1652 A.D. records the purport of a \*farmān\* of Muḥammad ’Adil Shāh of Bijapur. Two of the three Marāṭhī inscriptions,¹³ discovered in the Bidar District and containing dates in the Shāhūr years 979 (1579 A.D.), 1001 (1601 A.D.) and 1010 (1609 A.D.), have their Persian counter-parts. The first of them mentions 'Alī Barīd (1542-79 A.D.).
