² *ASR*, Vol. XXI, p. 50, plate XII, C. There is another inscription in the same place dated in (*V.*) *Saṁvat* 1227 (A. D. 1171), which records the building of a *bauli* (well) on the road during a famine for (the use of) all people in the *Jayapura-durga* by *Rauta Vera*, a *Kṣatriya* (by caste). This inscription also does not mention the name of any king. Cunningham read the date of this epigraph as 1237, see his *ASR*, Vol. XXI, pp. 49-50; Kielhorn corrected it to 1227 in *EI*, Vol. V, *Appendix*, p. 23, No. 157 and fn. 1. The letter ३ on the plate XII, A, however seems to support Cunningham's reading.
