⁴ Vaṭa-nagara or Vaṭa-pura was situated on the bank of the Sarasvatī (line 15). It is not identified; but Kielhorn points out that it was an ancient place, for it is mentioned in the Vasantgadh inscription of Varmalāta of the (V.)S. 682 (*EI*, Vol. IX, p. 191), and in a somewhat earlier inscription found at the village of Samoli in the Bhomaṭ district of Mewar. *EI*, Vol. IX, p. 99. It is probably identical with Vasantgadh, or was situated near by.
