Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This photograph of a Jain Herostone (virgal) with old Kannada inscription of about 1269 A.D. was taken by me at the Kedareshvara temple (also spelt Kedaresvara or Kedareshwara) in Balligavi (also called variously as Belgami, Belligave, Balligamve and Ballipura in ancient inscriptions) in the Shimoga district of Karnataka state, India. The inscription describes that a Jain saint attained heaven and the hero stone was made by Maru Voja.
