who made the city of Mânyakhêta, which is the modern Mâlkhêd in the Nizâm's Dominions, about ninety miles towards the south-east from Shôlâpur;¹ and, as this appears to be the town round which Gôvinda III. caused the Eastern Chalukya king to build a wall for him, the text seems to mean that Amôghavarsha I. completed the fortification of the place, and made it the capital of his dynasty. The published records, noted further on, give a certain amount of information to the extent of his dominions and as to his principal feudatories. And some further details for the southern provinces are furnished by an unpublished inscription at Nidagundi in the Dhârwâr District, which mentions a feudatory of his, named Bankeyarasa, of the Chellakêtana family,² who had the government of the Banavâsi twelve-thousand, the Belgali three-hundred, the Kundarage seventy, the Kundûr five-hundred, and the Purigere three-hundred. A verse which allots to an Amôghavarsha, who can hardly be any but the present king, the composition of a Jain work named \*Ratnamâlikâ\* or \*Praśnôttaramâlâ\*, tells us that "he laid aside the sovereignty through discrimination."³ It appears, therefore, that eventually, in consequence of extreme old age and waning strength, he abdicated in favour of his son Krishna II., who, as we shall see further on, was associated in the administration with him, as \*Yuvarâja\*.
