Translation by Sastri 1969

The temple of Rēvaśarmma, son of Rēcupaśarmma of Bhāradvāja gōtra.

Translation by Jens Thomas

Commentary

The Sanskrit grammar is not entirely correct (it should be prapē ṟēcupasarmmaputrasya). The inscription was on a slab near a shrine, and there is a certain chance that the term guḍi refers to the shrine and not to the temple itself.

Bibliography
