The inscription refers to Pulyan Ratnāvalī, princess Sūryyadevī, daughter of king Jaya Indravarmadeva and queen Śrī Paramaratnastrī. She was united for ever, by ties of marriage, to a nobleman called Oṅ Raṣu Nandana. The happy pair made various pious donations to the temple and installed an image of Bhagavatī Mātrliṅgeśvarī. In 1178 princess Ratnāvalī gave various ornaments of gold and silver to the goddess Pu Nagara and prescribed regulations for the dancing girls employed in the service of the goddess.
