^{page 572 note 1} A well known place is Iṭṭagi, in the south-west corner of the Hyderabad State, where there is a large Śaiva temple, dating from just before a.d. 1112, which is one of the finest extant specimens of the Chālukya style. A full description of it, with illustrations, from which its merits can be properly appreciated, will be found in Mr. Cousens' forthcoming volume on “The Chalukyan Architecture in the Kanarese Districts”: and the inscription which records the foundation of it by the Daṇḍanāyaka Mahādēva, a high minister of Vikramāditya VI, is being edited by Dr. Barnett in vol. 13 of the Epiyraphia Indica. Various inscriptional remains in the State are known (not very perfectly) from Sir Walter Elliot's MS. Collection of South-Indian Inscriptions: and seven of them, at Yēwūr, of the period a.d. 1040 to 1179, have been edited by DrBarnett, in Epi. Ind., vol. 12, p. 268 ff.Google Scholar

^{page 575 note 1} See my remarks in JRAS, 1909, p. 998. Mr. Krishna Sastri has assigned this identification of Suvarṇagiri to Dr. Geiger, who, however, expressly attributed it to me, and did not commit himself about it. The name Suvarṇagiri means “gold-hill”. And Mr. Krishna Sastri seems to have been led by the fact that the country round “Maski” shows clear traces of having been in former times a very important gold-working centre; of which, indeed, we might perhaps find a reminiscence in the name of the “Kanacgerri, Kanakgiri, Kanakgeri”, of maps, a town in the Hyderabad State about thirty miles towards south-southwest from “Mooski”. But we do not really need anything like that to account for such names as Suvarṇagiri and Kanakagiri.
