Translation. 
In the second year of the reign of Maharajadhiraja Sirapala, 
the 11th day of the dark fortnight of Asédha. In this year, month 
and day fortunate Uddanda Cada had the stone image of the Lord 
placed in a caitya which he himself caused to be made, by the 
elder Pirnadasa who was in the Vihara there, who was the oldest 
person in the Padikramana Aer and who was possessed of a 
pure sight. Whatever merit . 
No, VII. SGieiens inscription of the reign of the second year of 
Ramapala-deva 
This NCES like the preceding two, was discovered in the 
Museum gallery on the pedestal of an erect figure of Tari. No 
history of this inscription can be had, except that it came from 
Behar in October, 1891. Sir A. Canningham i in his report, Vol. iii, 
published a note on this inscription from Mr. Broadely, in which 
the date only was given 
The pedestal “a which the inscription is incised measures 
24/’x 2’. It is in two lines with a break in the middle, the 
surface of the stone being peeled off. The an jer is incorrect 
Sanskrit written in an eastern variety of Nagari char, 
The object of the inscription is to record the Sodtaaktan of the 
statue, on whose pedestal it is incised, by one Bhatta Iechara, pro- 
bably incorrectly for [gvara, the son of Bhatta Nabha, Its i impor- 
tance lies in its date, which is given as the second year of the reign 
of Ramapaladeva, the 28th of Vaiéakha. No inscription of this 
king occurs in Kielhorn’s list of Northern inscriptions.
