Dr. Hultzsch, in the third volume of the *Epigraphia Indica*, p. 36, gives these dates, but in the fourth volume of the same work (p. 180) he notes that an inscription of Râjasekhara exists at Âmbûr in North Arcot, which is dated in the year corresponding to A.D. 1468-69. I have also been told of an inscription on stone to be seen at the village of Pârnapalle (or Paranapalle) in the Cuddapah district, of which a copy on copper-plate is said to be in the possession of one Nârâyana Reddi of Goddamari in the Tâdpatri Taluq of the Anantapur district. This is reported to bear date Saka 1398 (A.D. 1476-77), and to mention as sovereign "Praudha Deva Râya of Vijayanagar."
