The only inscription of this prince so far known, is the \*Piawan rock-inscription\*. Piawan is a small valley, 25 miles to the N.N.E. of Rewa. At the western end of the valley, below a waterfall formed by a small stream, there is a rock formed into an \*Argha\* for the reception of a \*liṅga\*. The inscription is engraved on this rock. It consists of 6 lines and begins with the name of the king: \*Śrīmad-Gāṅgeyadeva Mahārājādhirāja Parameśvara... Mahāmaṇḍaleśvara\*. The record is damaged, but it contains the date (K.) \*Saṁvat\* 789 (A.D. 1038), and ends with \*Śrī-Ḍhāhala-m-iti\*. It was certainly a Śaiva record, for it contains the word \*Maheśvara\*.¹ - [Previous: v2.c29.s2.108](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s2.108) - [Next: v2.c29.s2.110](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s2.110) - [Up: v2.c29.s2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s2.109](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s2.109) · Pramāṇa
