The Dynastic History of Northern India (Early Mediaeval Period) v1.c17.s4.23

³ Edited by R. D. Banerji, *EI*, Vol. XI, pp. 281-87. The editor read ‘ Sa[mvat] [88] Kārttika-śukla’ at the end of the record. He then referred it to Harṣa era (88 + 606) and found its equivalent in 694 A.D. But Venkayya notices that the date is so badly damaged that nothing can be read clearly. ‘ What is seen is a circle which may denote 20. It is just possible that the regnal year of the king is simply repeated in numerical symbols preceded probably by the word *Saṁvatsare* ’; see *ibid*, p. 282, fn. 1. Could Kaṭaka-*bhukti-Viṣaya* be connected with modern Cuttack ?
