Of the time of Aṅka, we have two records,—inscriptions on stone at the temple of Aṅkalêśvara or Aṅkuśêśvara at Saundatti.⁵ One of them⁶ describes him as a Mahâsâmanta, feudatory to the Western Châlukya king Sômêśvara I., and furnishes for him the date of the winter solstice in the month Pausha, falling in December, A. D. 1048, of the Sarvadhârin saṁvatsara, Śaka-Saṁvat 970 (expired). The other is a mere fragment, dated in the same year.
