Of Harivarman, we have two grants. One, from Halsî,⁴ dated in the month Phâlguna (Feb.-March), in his fourth year, records that, at Uchchaśṛiṅgî, at the advice of his paternal uncle Sivaratha, he gave a village into the possession of the sect of Vâri-shêṇâchârya of the Kûrchakas, for the purposes of a shrine of the Arhat which had been built at Palâśikâ by a certain Mrigêśa, son of the Sênâpati Simha of the Bhâradvâja gôtra. The other, also from Halsî,⁵ dated, without further details, in his fifth year, records that, at Palâśikâ, and by the request of Bhânuśakti of the Sêndraka family, he allotted a village for the purposes of a Jain temple which belonged to the community of ascetics called Aharishṭi. In both of his grants, he uses the paramount title Mahârâja.
