² *Ibid*, p. 15, No. 182. M. Chakravarti gives the date of this inscription as Ś. 1069. See *JASB*, 1903, pp. 99 ff. As so many of the inscriptions of Coḍagaṅga use the Telugu language and alphabet, it is, I think untenable, to hold with Mr. B. C. Mazumdar that the language and script of the Gaṅga rulers of Orissa 'were not Telugu but Tamil.' See his *OM*, p. 205; note also the Dirghasi inscription of Rājarāja above.
