S.I.I., vol. ii, part 5, p. 515. The translation of the late T. A. Gopinatha Rao which Prof. Jouveau-Dubreuil follows requires to be reconsidered in view of an altered reading of the verse given in Dr. Hultzsch's of verse 16 (p. 50, Pallavas) text (\*Ep. Ind.\*, vol. xviii, p. 10) in which the sixteenth verse reads as follows :— Yatprasādā(r)jjitāsēnā Pāṇḍyēna Samarē purā | Pārērichitsarājyaśrārdadāha ripusamhatim || We have here no reference to the defeat sustained (by the Pallavas) at the hands of the Pāṇḍyas referred to in Gopinatha Rao's translation. Dr. Hultzsch translates the verse thus :—Resembling fire, this king (Nripatunga) by whose favour the Pāṇḍya had obtained an army formerly burnt a confederation of enemies on the further bank of the Arichit river. The supply of an army by Nripatunga to the Pāṇḍyan king, if the reading is correct, will necessitate a revision of our present views of the relationship of the Pallavas and Pāṇḍyas during this period. - [Previous: c14.43](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gopalan-1928.c14.43) - [Next: c14.45](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gopalan-1928.c14.45) - [Up: c14](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gopalan-1928.c14) ## Cites (2) - [Koṇḍaṇagūru grant of Indra Bhaṭṭāraka](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.epigraphy.deccan.eastern-calukya.kondanaguru-grant-of-indra-bhattaraka) — Sanskrit - [South Indian Inscriptions](https://indike.org/pramana/inp.epigraphy.south.sii) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gopalan-1928.c14.44](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.gopalan-1928.c14.44) · Pramāṇa
