Antaravedi.—The traditional Antaravedi mentioned in the Indore copperplate inscription of Skandagupta (466 A.D.) is the country lying between the Ganges and the Jumna¹ and between Prayāga and Hardwar. According to this inscription, a lamp was maintained in a temple of the sun (sūrya) at Indrapura out of a perpetual endowment made by a Brahmin named Devaviṣṇu (C.I.I., Vol. III). The Bulandshahar district lies actually in this Antaravedi.
