ABSTRACT
Inscriptions from Udayagiri: Locating Domains of Devotion, Patronage and Power in the Eleventh Century
Michael Willis
Udayagiri is well known for sculptures and inscriptions of the fifth century but the site has a long history, both before and after the Gupta period. In an attempt to expand the history of Udayagiri, this article addresses some eleventh-century inscriptions at the site along with coeval archaeological and architectural remains. In exploring this evidence and its implications, the author concludes that Udayagiri was the site of the now-vanished Sun temple known as Bhaillasvami.
