⟨1⟩ maharajavaḍhamane ⬦ maharajavaḍhamāne Sircar [1966] 1963–1964. — ⟨1⟩ bha(ga)[vato][…][pa](ti)ṭhavita ⬦ bha(ṭā)...........(ti)ṭhavita Sircar [1966] 1963–1964 • In his notes 6 and 7, Sircar [1966] 1963–1964 suggests that the word intended before the lacuna may have been bhaṭāraka (Sanskrit bhaṭṭāraka), while the word after the lacuna was patiṭhavita. As for the lacuna, No name N.d., pp. 1955–56: 24 cites a reading (bha)gavato mulache(ti)ya(ye) patithapita. If we are right in assuming that this represents the present inscription, then it may be suggested that the currently missing right fragment, when first observed, bore more text on it than when the estampage ARIE 1959-60: B. 95 was made. And if this is true, then the lacuna may be tentatively filled in with the word mulace(ti)ya, if we interpret the use of parentheses in IAR 1955-56 correctly. Nevertheless, because readings cited in IAR are on the whole clearly provisional, and often unreliable, we do not dare to restore the complete lacuna on the sole evidence of this source.

Bibliography

Notes
1. On the technical term vaḍhamana, which is difficult to translate, see Falk et al. 2013, pp. 323–326 who proposes to understand the term as “plot, estate”.
