Tirodi copper plates

The Tiroḍī copper plates are an epigraphic record of the Vākāṭaka dynasty, documenting a land donation to a brāhmaṇa in the reign king Pravarasena II in the fifth century CE.

Tiroḍī is located eight miles south-east of Katangi in the Balaghat district of Madhya Pradesh.

According to historian Ajay Mitra Shastri, the donated village of Kosambakhaṇḍa mentioned in the inscription is represented by the modern Kosamba (coordinates: 21° 38' 0" North, 79° 39' 0" East).

The object of the inscription is to record the grant, by Pravarasena II, of the village Kosambakhaṇḍa to a person named Varuṇārya of the Harkari gotra.

The grant is dated on the twelfth day of the dark half of the month of Māgha during the 23rd year of donor's reign.
