The work of Kuṟuvadi Ācaṟlu
Version: (4f56646), last modified (dde297c).
Apparatus
⟨1⟩ kuṟuvadi ⬦ (ka)ṟuvadi ARIE • This reading is given in the small summary of the Annual Report. — ⟨1⟩ kē⟨2⟩sina ⬦ kē⟨2⟩siva RP • The reading kēsina follows K. M. Sastri’s text. It is possible that the reading kēsiva is but a misprint for kēsina in Ramayya Pantulu’s text since both akṣaras are very similar in Telugu script.

Commentary
The suffix -yu appears to be the conjunctive particle (Sastri 1969, pp. 259–260) and is rendered by "and" in the translation. The inscription was found among other inscriptions at the seventh cave temple at Bhairavakōna in Bhairavakoṇḍa that predominantly feature names (confer the respective Annual Report). The conjunctive particle may have had the function to refer to these other works done or donated by the persons whose names have been preserved. The name Kuṟuvadi Ācāṟlu does not seem to occur a second time. Grammatically, the oblique form (-la) of the name that is in attributive position is remarkable and probably indicative of old age (also confer Sastri 1969, pp. 266–267.
