N. N. Vasu gave a reading of a grant of the same king, \*Vanger Jātīya Itihās\*, Vol. II, pp. 215-17; but it has never been edited. See \*Bāṅgālār Itihās\*, 2nd Ed., Vol. I, pp. 302-04. In this grant \*Parama-Vaiṣṇava-P.-Pb. M.\*-Harivarman is said to be the son of \*M.\*-Jyōtivarman; it is dated in his 42nd year. See \*IA\*, 1922, p. 153, fn. 18; \*IB\*, p. 168. For Bhavadeva see also \*JASB\*, 1912, pp. 333-48. In the Bhuvanesvar epigraph Bhaṭṭa Bhavadeva is called \*Bāla-Valabhī-bhujaṅga\*. Kielhorn could not explain the word. The commentary of the \*Rāma-carita\* II, 5, mentions a \*Sāmanta\* of Rāmapāla, Vikramarāja, the ruler of Bāla-Valabhī. There is no doubt therefore that Bāla-Valabhī was the name of a place. In the \*Rāma-carita\* it is placed near Devagrāma which has however not been identified. It was probably a place in West Bengal.
