Details | A set of four inscribed copper plates. The first three plates are inscribed on both sides with somewhat inaccurate editions of the rock inscriptions of Bhuvanaikabāhu IV and Vikramabāhu III at Laṅkātilaka (see IN03212 and IN03213 for the original rock inscriptions). The fourth plate is engraved on one side only with grants of lands to the shrine at Laṅkātilaka in the reigns of Rājāhirājasiṁha of Kandy and his predecessor, Kīrtiśrī Rājasiṁha. |
