So far only one record has been discovered for the reign of this prince. This is his \*Ratnapur stone-inscription\*. The reddish brown stone which bears this inscription was found at Ratnapur in the C. P. It consists of 31 lines and opens with a verse in praise of Śiva. Then follows the usual genealogy (as in No. 1 above). Pṛthvīdeva’s son was Jājalla. The proper object of the inscription appears to be to record the establishment of a monastery for ascetics (\*tāpasa-maṭha\*), the making of a garden and a lake and probably also the foundation of a temple at Jājallapura and the grant of the villages of Sirulī and Arjunkoṇasaraṇa (?) etc., by king Jājalladeva. The inscription ends with the date (K.) \*Saṁvat\* 866 (1114 A. D.).⁴ - [Previous: v2.c29.s3.22](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s3.22) - [Next: v2.c29.s3.24](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s3.24) - [Up: v2.c29.s3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s3.23](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.ray-1931.v2.c29.s3.23) · Pramāṇa
