¹ The record was first published in *JASB*, 1848, Vol. XVII, pp. 313-17, as an appendix to Maisey's account of the antiquities of Kalinjar. In 1894-85, Cunningham noticed it in his *ASR*, Vol. XXI, pp. 37-38. He corrected the reading of the date which was given in the above account as Samvat 1298. Kielhorn gave the accurate date in the *IA*, Vol. XIX, p. 354, No. 152. I think *Daśārṇa* of this inscription should be taken as Western Daśārṇa, which is identified with Eastern Malwa (capital Bhilsa); *GDI*, p. 54. It was from this city that the Augasi grant of his father was issued. His Semra grant shows that he held territory close to Eastern Malwa.
