*Palakkaḍa-sthāna.*—It was the place of issue of the Uruvapalli plates of Simhavaran. Some have tried to identify it with Palāṭkaṭa. But this identification is doubtful. Palakkaḍa may be identified with the modern village of Palakalūru in the Guntur taluk. Some suggest that Palukuru in the Kandukūr taluk of the Nellore district might be the ancient Palakkaḍa or Palātkaṭa (E.I., XXIV, Pt. III, July, 1937).
