(2) *Madhukargadh (Harouta, Rajputana) stone-inscription.*—This opens with an invocation to Nīlakaṇṭha (Śiva), and then traces Paramāra genealogy from Sindhula (= Sindhurāja) to Naravarman, omitting both Jayasiṁha and Lakṣmadeva. It seems to record the construction of a Śaiva temple by Hara, the son of Mahādeva and grandson of the minister Rudrāditya.³ It is dated in (V.) *Saṁvat* 1164 (*c.* 1108 A.D.).⁴ (3) *Bombay grant.*—29 lines incised on two plates. The introductory verses are devoted to praise of Siva. Then follows the genealogy of the Paramāras from Sindhurāja to Naravarman (as in No. 2). The inscription records the grant of several pieces of land situated in the village of Kadambapadraka, which was being enjoyed by the *Mahāmaṇḍalika* Rājyadeva, in the *Pratijāgaraṇaka* of Mandaraka in the Upendrapura-*maṇḍala*, to the Brāhman Āśādhara. The date is *V. S.* 1167 (*c.* 1110-11 A.D.). But it also contains two more dates, *V. S.* 1154 (*c.* 1097-98 A.D.) and *V. S.* 1159 (*c.* 1102-03 A.D.), when some other pieces of land were granted by the king's wife Mahādevī and the king respectively.¹
