puspadanta It would also be possible to read puṣpadanta. However, other instances of that name in this epigraph are consistently spelled with a dental s. mukutā- Understand mukuṭā-? vvantən A second akṣara na is written above the ligature nta. The engraver would probably have realised that he was beginning to write too high, and stopped after the first akṣara, then rewrote nta at the proper place. Anantara Cf. Mūla-Maluruṅ 3r7, Anantara saṅke līnanira pamanira pva, Immediately after the passing away of his uncle (...), and Gaṇapatitattva, OJ prose under stanza 44.

In Śaka 1261, month of Māgha, ninth tithi of the waning fortnight, Mavulu, Umanis, Tuesday, the vuku of Vuyai:

that was the time that rakryan chief Puṣpadanta, won the lawsuit against Mpu Sāvitra by refutation mukutādharṣaṇa. It had been tried by all the ministers of Tumapəl, with the interpreters of dharma upapatti. Its occasion makaprasthāva was the action of Mpu Sāvitra, rashly accusing rakryan chief Puṣpadanta of having seized the land of Kabhagavanan or “the place of the hermits”, worth ten lirih. Such was the case of Mpu Sāvitra. As for the case of the rakryan chief Puṣpadanta, it was that the land, worth ten lirih, is his usufruct from his paternal lineage kulit kaki. This they argued, those who were solicited for evidence pramāṇa.

Those who have borders were invited to come as per the recommendation of the two litigating parties, beginning with Sumbul. Their words when they were asked: “In truth, by your leave, chief Puṣpadanta owns these irrigated rice-fields worth ten lirih at Sagiri. As for yapvan the rice-fields of Kabhagavanan, they are also worth ten lirih. Such, they testified, was the whole of his land. And they went on: There is, my lord, a retribution on irrigation water paṅhulu bañu on them, two kupaṅ for each group of rice-fields, to be received by the headman rāma of Sumbul; which should prove that they are different. And the testimony of the chief of mantən, named Gambyok: “Aki Gaṇḍi, my lord, was the child of the reverend of Kr̥ta. It was he juga who had the usufruct of these ten lirih. Immediately after him, it was the nun Nuda. Finally the one with the byname Śūrajaya had the usufruct of the land of Kabhagavanan until now, exclusively focused on the ten lirih. It is impossible that worldly activities / business turn up at the rice-field directed at farming, such as the ten lirih.” Such was the testimony of Master Gambyok.

This was used as evidence by all the assembled ministers. Because of that rakryan chief Puṣpadanta won and Mpu Sāvitra lost. The judges aməgat listed one by one: the rakryan Raṅga, Aki Taṅga and Aki Kape; the rakryan Kanuruhan, Aki Joṅ and Raging Buffalo Mahiṣa aṅivuṅ; the rakryan Tuməṅguṅ, Aki Makara and Aki Raṅga Asəm-asəm; the rakryan Dəmuṅ, Aki Rəma and Aki Goleṅ; the rakryan apatih Ravi, and the raka of Mali; the prāṇapatis, who have as overlord the noble Śūrasiṅha; and the brahmin ministers bhujaṅga mantri: he with the byname Antaraga; he with the byname Chāyaguṇa; the officiant of Saliṅsiṅan; with in the first place the one with the byname Surapati; and also the officiant of Kaṇḍamuhi; the officiant of Pamvatan. Thus was the total number of judges present.
