Translation by Arlo Griffiths

Hail! Elapsed Śaka year 776, month of Caitra, fourteenth [tithi] of the waxing fortnight, Vurukuṅ (of the 6-day cycle), Pahiṅ (of the 5-day cycle), Friday (i.e., on 16 March 854 CE): that was when the Lord/Lady of Sisair (named) pu Virājā demarcated the paddy fields at Vayuku to become a sīma of his/her vihāra at Abhayananda.

Commentary

Bibliography

The text was first edited, with a facsimile, in Cohen Stuart and van Limburg Brouwer 1872 (and reproduced in Cohen Stuart 1875 as well as Sarkar 1971–1972); the two errors in this edition were corrected in Damais 1955. The present digital edition follows the latter, confirmed by Arlo Griffiths from photographs.
