a) The Ragolu plates ( Ep. Ind. Vol XII, page 2 ) mention Vāsiṣṭhīputra Śaktivarman, king of Kalinga who reigned at Piṣṭāpura. It is said that this sovereign "adorns the Māgadha family," which goes to show that this prince was related to the Guptas and reigned towards the middle of the V century when the Guptas and the Vākāṭakas dominated the Deccan.
