· <div type="commentary">
· <p>This inscription is a 14th-century copy (1270 Śaka = 1348 CE) of a Balitung-era charter of 824 Śaka (902 CE). It likely went through several rounds of copying. The earlier date of 824 Śaka is severely corrupted, as explained by Damais: <q>II s'agit d'une copie faite en 1270 śaka (voir Watukura B, Liste A. 18 5) et il doit y avoir une erreur dans les données car celles-ci sont irréductibles sans correction</q> (1955: 194). According to van Naerssen: <q>Some anachronisms found in the text show beyond doubt that the copyist of the Çaka year 1270 did not have the original charter of the Çaka year 824 at his disposal, but had to copy a document made at the time of King Wawa or King Sindok (about the middle of the tenth century).</q> We find several instances of phraseology that are typical of the Sindok period (929–951 CE):
· <list rend="numbered">
· <item>Van Naerssen 1941: 104 writes that “<q>De aanvangswoorden van de pericope waarin de lijst der maṅilala dṛvya haji wordt ingeleid, is gelijk aan die der oorkonden uit Wawa’s en Siṇḍok’s tijd (cf. de Inleiding blz. 12).</q>” The reference to p. 12 makes clear that he meant the occurrence of the words <foreign>mīśra para mīśra, vulu-vulu prakāra</foreign> in 3r3–4.

Commentary
This inscription is a 14th-century copy (1270 Śaka = 1348 CE) of a Balitung-era charter of 824 Śaka (902 CE). It likely went through several rounds of copying. The earlier date of 824 Śaka is severely corrupted, as explained by Damais: “II s’agit d’une copie faite en 1270 śaka (voir Watukura B, Liste A. 18 5) et il doit y avoir une erreur dans les données car celles-ci sont irréductibles sans correction” (1955: 194). According to van Naerssen: “Some anachronisms found in the text show beyond doubt that the copyist of the Çaka year 1270 did not have the original charter of the Çaka year 824 at his disposal, but had to copy a document made at the time of King Wawa or King Sindok (about the middle of the tenth century).” We find several instances of phraseology that are typical of the Sindok period (929–951 CE):
(1v3) panīma: see other instances of payment of a demarcation fee?
(1v4) dharmma paṅasthūlan: is this Balitung’s deification temple?
(2r5) Akṣeṇya: a hapax of unknown meaning, found neither in OJED nor in Sanskrit dictionaries
(3r5) tuhālupCf. Kalimusan r3 for the same term. Compare the present list of functions (maṅilala) with that of Kalimusan. The list of the Watu Kura I inscription includes insertions of new terms (?).
(5r2) tumŭt krama saṁ haneṁ: The passage of several lines from tumŭt krama onwards has a lose parallel in several inscriptions of Sindok.
