History of Orissa from the Earliest Times to the British Period v1.c23.25

v1.c23.25

Thirty-two years later we find another Rajendravarman, Rajendravarman IV, son of another Anantavarman, Anantavarman IV in possession of Kaliṅga. The plates were issued from the city of Kaliṅga in the year 342 but further details are not available.³ The latest known date of the early Gaṅga dynasty of Kaliṅga is to be found in the Chikakol plates of Satyavarman, son of Devendravarman. In this case this Devendravarman must be the fourth king of that name. By this charter the king granted the village of Tārugrāma in the district of Galela to a god. A Gurava or a Śūdra priest of a Śaiva shrine, is mentioned in this connection. The date is given in words but details are omitted.⁴
