	A Note on the Tirlingi Copper-Plate - Paper by Priyatosh Banerjee
		Thus palaeographically, the present plate can be ascribed to C. 6th-7th century A. This grant is one of an early Ca´ga king of Orissa whose name will remain shrouded in obscurity until the other plates of the set are available.
		The engraver was Vinayachandra (son of Bh¡nuchandra who as is well-known was the writer of the Narasingapalli and Url¡m plates of Hastivarman, and the Achyutapuram, S¡nta-bomm¡li and Parl¡kim®·li grants of Indravarman II bearing (Ga´ga) years 79.91 as noted above.
		So if the year of the Tirlingi plate belong to the referred, we have to presume that Vinayachandra was in active service from the year 28 or somethime previous to it, to the year 91 (date of the Parl¡kim®·I plates of Indravarman II) or sometime posterior to it.
