But an inscription at Harasûr in the Nizâm’s Dominions,² dated in April, A. D. 1161, states, if we may rely on the transcript, that he was then reigning at Jayantîpura, i.e. Banavâsi in North Kanara. The full details of the date of this record are an eclipse of the sun on Monday, the new-moon day of the month Vaiśâkha of the Vishu saṁvatsara, which is cited as the twelfth year of Taila III. The corresponding English date is, approximately, the 27th April, A. D. 1161.³ And this is the latest date that has been obtained, connected with the rule of Taila III. The latest date, however, that can be vouched for, in a record undoubtedly mentioning Taila III. as paramount sovereign, is the 26th December, A. D. 1155, furnished by an inscription at Balagâmve.⁴ It is probable, indeed, from the Hulgûr and Hâvêri inscriptions,⁵ that his authority, as paramount sovereign, was still recognised in October, A. D. 1156, and December, A. D. 1157. But the 26th December, A. D. 1155, is the latest absolutely certain date. Taila III. died certainly before the 19th January, A. D. 1163. - [Previous: c8.s14.266](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c8.s14.266) - [Next: c8.s14.268](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c8.s14.268) - [Up: c8.s14](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c8.s14) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c8.s14.267](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c8.s14.267) · Pramāṇa
