## Bibliography

Not noticed in ARIE. This digital edition by Renato Dávalos based on
autopsy and photographic documentation.

[1] The record does not unambuiguously specify if it is a temple that
was constructed by Vikrama Cōḻa or whether it was erected in his honour.
The translation, therefore, keeps the ambiguity of the original.
