M. M. Chakravarti — Inscription of Kapilendra Leva. [No. 2, 
(samga, ramga 1. 8, hliamgl 1. 20), and sometimes by ij {nihgapkah^ 
papka, 1. 4) ; the palatal n is represented always by anus vara ''{camcala 
1. 1, Kdmclhara 1. 17) ; the dental n is sometimes represented by 
anusvara {vamdmam 1. 10) ; the avagraha is sometimes omitted 
kdle(’)rpitd 1. 6, prasa7ind(f)stu 1. 30. 
The inscription takes up thirty lines. The language is of the later 
inflated style. Excepting the invocation and a short passage in line 
29, it is entirely in verse, 27 stanzas of various metres. It was com- 
posed by Jagali Kavi, and was inscribed by one Yakakhya. Many 
verses show elegance and rhetorical skill. 
According to the inscription, the temple of Jaganatha at Gopi- 
nathapura was built under the orders of Gopinatha Mahapatra, the 
minister of the king Kapilendra alias Kapilecvara Deva of Orissa. 
The inscription mentions Gopinatha’s genealogy as follows : — 
Laksmana Mahapatra, i 
priest of the king 
Kapilendra (1. Jl). 
I 1 
Elder son, Narayana, Younger son, 
a minister of the Gopinatha Mahapatra, (1. 13) 
same king (1, 12). of the Harita Kula (1. 20) 
Jagali (1. 29), 
born of Gopinatha. 
The inscription mentions Kapilendra also as Kapileqvara (1. 17), 
and describes him as belonging to the solar line (1. 5) with the title 
Bhramaravara (1. 7). Kapilendra is said to have defeated and caused 
terror in the hearts of the kings of Karnata, Kalavaraga, Malava, 
Gauda and Dhilli (1. 7, cf. also lines 16 to 19). Gopinatha is described 
as having assisted his master materially in the various conquests and 
to have led an invasion into Malavendra’s territory, crossing many 
hills (1. 19). 
The inscription is undated, but its time can be approximately 
ascertained. GOpinatha’s father and elder brother having previously 
served the same King, Gopinatha must have taken service in the latter 
part of the king’s reign. Then again the inroad to Malava in line 19, 
verse 16, is apparently identifiable with the invasion of the Orissa 
1 Laksmana Mahapatra, the donor’s father is mentioned in another Oriya 
inscription as the ‘‘purohita’* or priest of Kapilecvara Deva ; c/. my article, Jourp.
