No. 60. Saмvat 516 (Gn. 517) Bhaktapur, Golamадhи-тola
| A slab of stone at Golmadhitole,
Bhaktapur. The inscribed part is about 50 cm wide and 62 cm long. Its top is decorated
with a chakra flanked by two щankhas. Date: Saмvat 516 Jyeштha щukla divа
daщamyаm. Bendall read the date symbol as Saмvat 316 or 318. But he was wrong. The
symbol for 500 is clear. Gnoli and writers following Levi have read it as 500, which is
correct. (R). Bhaттаraka Mahаrаja Щrи Щivadeva from Mаnagriha Dutaka - Bhogavarmma Gomin. From the advice (vijгаpitena) of Щrи Mahаsаmanta Aмщuvarman; prasаdo vaх kрta; samаjгаpanа. Records the grant to the inhabitants of a place, called Mаkhopring-satala-draкga. The matter of grant - the rights to the representatives (adhikрta) of Kуther-vрtti to enter this draкga only for collecting three taxes (trikaramаtrasаdhana). But in the cases of paгcаparаdha and accomplishment the written gifts (lekhyadаna) and others, their entry was prohibited. |
