                            <p>Besides the fragments noticed below, the shrine of <hi rend="bold">Rājasiṁhavarmeśvara</hi> and its <hi rend="italic">mahāmaṇḍapa</hi> contain a number of fragments in the <hi rend="italic">Grantha</hi> character, which must have belonged to one or more inscriptions in Sanskrit verse and prose. One of the fragments, which is found on the floor of the <hi rend="italic">mahāmaṇḍapa</hi> and which consists of 10 lines, mentions the <hi rend="bold">Choḷas</hi> in the genitive case (<hi rend="italic">coḷānām</hi>, line 3). A second fragment, which is found on the roof of the <hi rend="italic">mahāmaṇḍapa</hi>, consists also of 10 lines and seems to be connected with the first. It mentions <hi rend="bold">Choḷa-Triṇetra</hi> (lines 1 and 10) and three Eastern <hi rend="bold">Chalukya</hi> kings, <hi rend="italic">viz.</hi>, <hi rend="bold">[Vijay]āditya-Guṇakāṅga, Chāḷukya-Bhīma</hi> and <hi rend="bold">Kollavigaṇḍa</hi><note>These three kings are Nos. 13, 14 and 15 of the table on page 32, above.</note> (line 3). The name of <hi rend="bold">V[ai]dumba</hi>, a king who is known to have been conquered by the <hi rend="bold">Choḷa</hi> king <hi rend="bold">Parāntaka</hi> I.,<note>See page 112, note 3.</note> occurs at the beginning of line 5. In lines 7 and 8, (<hi rend="italic">the temple of the god</hi>) <hi rend="bold">Bhīmeśvara</hi> is mentioned. The 8th line of both fragments seems to have contained a date in the Śaka era, of which the first number was 9 and the third was 3.<note><foreign>[śa]kanṛpanavaśatasaṁkhyā[pi] <gap reason="lost" quantity="8" unit="character"/> ṣu yāteṣu tribhirādhikeṣuṁ caturttha <gap reason="lost" quantity="10" unit="character"/></foreign></note> A third fragment, which is found on the floor of the <hi rend="bold">Rājasiṁhavarmeśvara</hi> Shrine and consists of 49 lines, mentions the Eastern <hi rend="bold">Chalukya</hi> king <hi rend="bold">Dānārṇava</hi><note>This king is No. 24 of the table on page 32, above.</note> (line 17) and the <hi rend="bold">Choḷa</hi> king <hi rend="bold">Karikāla-Choḷa</hi><note><hi rend="bold">Karikāla</hi> is mentioned in line 24 of the large Leyden grant (Dr. Burgess' <hi rend="italic">Arch. Survey of S. India</hi>, Vol. IV, p. 206) as the builder of the “Grand Anicut,” which prevents the waters of the <hi rend="bold">Kāverī</hi> being drawn off into the Koḷḷiḍam and thus secures the irrigation of the Tanjore District.</note> (line 38) and contains a long list of <hi rend="italic">birudas</hi> of some king. Another list of <hi rend="italic">birudas</hi> is contained in a fourth fragment, which is found on the roof of the <hi rend="italic">mahāmaṇḍapa</hi> and consists of 30 lines. There is a fifth fragment in 9 lines on the roof of the <hi rend="italic">mahāmaṇḍapa</hi>. Two small fragments, each of which contains 8 lines, are found near the window, which opens from the <hi rend="italic">mahāmaṇḍapa</hi> into the front <hi rend="italic">maṇḍapa</hi>.</p>
