India history and geography
Source: What is India: Inscriptions of the ŚilāhārasMālapayya Nāyaka is the name of a person mentioned in the “Miraj stone inscription of Vijayaditya”. Accordingly, “Bhāyipayya Nāyaka, the mahāpradhān and Controller of Customs, and Mālapayya Nāyaka, the Superintendent of markets of the District of Miriñje, who are dependent on his lotus-like feet, have donated the following dues for the offerings in worship of the god Mādhaveśvara...”
This stone inscription (mentioning Mālapayya) was found on a slab built into the wall in the gateway of the fort of Miraj in the present Sānglī District of Mahārāṣṭra. It records that certain merchants who were foremost in the Trading Corporation of the Vīra-Baṇañjas assembled at Seḍambāl as the General Body and donated certain dues on commodities in favour of the god Mādhaveśvara. It is dated on Friday, the sixth Tithip of the bright fortnight of Bhādrapada in the Śaka year 1065, the cyclic year being Dundubhi.
