⁶ An inscription at Heggere in Mysore (Mysore Inscriptions, p. 328) seems to indicate that he was entrusted with some share of the government during his father's lifetime. But the value of this record is doubtful. Amongst the persons with whose aid, it says, he governed, there is mentioned, his own mother, the celebrated Sâtavve (sic); but his own mother was Lakshmâdevî (see page 494 above). And the date is very questionable. If it is really the eighteenth year of the Châlukya-Vikrama-varsha, = A. D. 1093-94, it falls before the time of even Ballâla I. While, if it is the seventy-eighth year, = A. D. 1153-54, (in Kanarese, a damaged 'seven' may easily be misread as 'one'),—it falls twenty-two years after the death of Sântavve (see page 494 above).
