No. 107. Yang Kur Inscription of Indravarman IV dated 1200 Śaka

v1.c9.s93.2

This inscription in mixed Sanskrit and Cham is engraved on two faces of a stelae found at Yang kur (formerly called Pāṇḍuraṅga hill ?), quite close to that famous town. The inscription contains 23 lines of writing but very little can be deciphered. It begins with an invocation to Śiva and records that in 1200 (=1278 A. D.), in the reign of Indravarman, the noble queen Sūryalakṣmī installed the statue of the god Bhūmivijaya.
