Tālapuramsaka.—It is a village situated in the district of Nāgapura-Nandivardhana, granted to a Brahmin. The grant was made by Kṛṣṇa III (alias Akālavarṣa) of the Rāṣṭrakūṭa family of the Deccan in the name of his brother Jagattuṅga Kṛṣṇa II. Akālavarṣa frightened the Gurjaras, destroyed the pride of Lāṭa, taught humility to the Gauḍas, and his command was obeyed by the Aṅgas, Kaliṅgas, Gaṅgas and Magadha (E.I., V, 192ff.).
