The Dynastic History of Northern India (Early Mediaeval Period) v2.c31.704

v2.c31.704

4-7 seem to have contained references to Mūlarāja I, the founder of the Caulukyas of Aṇahilapāṭaka. From Vs. 8-79, we have a description of the achievements of the Vāghelās from Arṇorāja to Vīsaladeva.¹ The proper object seems to have been to record the building or restoration of a temple of Śiva-Vaidyanātha at Dabhoi (Darbhavatī) by the order of Vīsaladeva. The *praśasti* was composed by Someśvara, the royal priest² and written by the Brāhman Prahlādana. It was incised by the *Sūtradhāra-dhuri* Padmasiṁha. The date, (V.) *Saṁvat* 1311 (A.D. 1253) comes at the end.³
