c9.14

Mention has just been made of the inscription on a stele at Ligor, referring to the prowess of the king of Śrī-Vijaya. Now a short record is engraved on the back of the same stele consisting of only a single verse and a few letters of another. It refers to a king called Viṣṇu who belonged to the Śailendra dynasty and was also known by the appellation of Śrī-Mahārāja. These two inscriptions may be referred to as A and B.
