(1) \*Mangrol stone-inscription.\*—Found incised on a piece of hard black stone, "built up in the wall to the right in descending into a Vāo (Vāpi) near the Gadis' gate at Mangrol in Junagarh," South Kathiawar. It contains 25 lines, and opens with \*Oṁ namaḥ Śivāya\* and an invocation to Hara. It then praises Kumārapāla, who succeeded Siddharāja. Next follows the genealogy of a family of Guhila chiefs.³ Amongst these Sahajiga became a commander of the Caulukya forces. His sons grew so powerful that they were able to protect the Saurāṣṭra country. One of these, named Samarāja set up an idol of the god Maheśvara; and another named \*Ṭha(kkura)\* Mūluka made some grants for the service of the god. In lines 23-25 the record is dated in V.S. 1202 (A.D. 1145) and Siṁha \*Saṁvat\* 32. It was composed by the \*Parama-Pāśupatācārya-mahāpaṇḍita\* Prasarvadnya.⁴
