dhañakaḍakasa haripusasa paṭaṁ dānaṁ

haripusasa harapusasa paṭaṁ dānaṁ paṭadāna

A pupphagahani slab: the gift of Haripussa from Dhaññakaḍa.

48, note: Here either the puphagahani is referred to as paṭa “slab,” or, more likely, if inscriptions II.2,9 (=KnI 28) and II.2,10 (=KnI 29) are compared, the puphagahani and the accompanying slab seem to be the object of donation. KnI 29 in fact reads puphagahani dānaṁ and not puphagahapaṭa. Moreover, KnI 61 refers to the dedicated object as puphapaṭo, which does in fact support that pupphagahanis are sometimes more losely refer to as “slabs”. I have thus translated accordingly.
