¹ *ASR*, Vol. III, p. 125. In this report ‘Jaynagar near Lakhi Sarai’ is placed under Gaya; but the *IGI*, Vol. XVI, 1908, p. 180, places Luckeesarai in Monghyr district. Another Jaynagar image-inscription dated in the 35th year of *Gauḍeśvara* Palapāla was noticed by Cunningham; see *ASR*, Vol. III, Plate XLV, No. 33. Mr. R. D. Banerji accepts this ruler as a Pāla prince and places him after Madanapāla; see *JBORS*, December 1918, pp. 496 ff. He may have succeeded Madanapāla and Govindapāla in a portion of Bihar with pretensions over portions of Gauḍa. The title *Gauḍeśvara* in that case finds a parallel in the title *Kālañjarādhipati* of the Southern Kalacuris.
