One is a grant from Nerûr, in the Sâwantwâḍî State.² It mentions first Kîrtivarmân I.; then his son, Satyâśraya, i.e. Pulikêśin II.; then the latter's son, Vikramâditya I.; and then the latter's elder brother, Chandrâditya. With the name of Chandrâditya there is coupled the epithet pṛithivîvallabha; and also the title Mahârâja, which had then come to denote feudatory rank. The object of the record is to state that, in the fifth year of the reign or government, on the second tithi of the bright fortnight of the month Âśvayuja, at the autumnal equinox, Chandrâditya's wife, Vijayabhaṭṭârikâ, granted to a Brâhmaṇ some land in a village named Tarakâgâhâra. No era is quoted; but the corresponding English date is the 23rd September, A. D. 659.³
