What is being inferred

Grahapati Kokkala inscription and Bijamandala identification route is treated here only as the inferred lacuna described by the candidate record and the evidence packet below.

What is attested

• Evidence 1242 records: The page gives lead context for an inscription, temple foundation, and later site-identification question.
• Evidence 1243 records: Cunningham supplies older archaeological sourcebook context for the Khajuraho remains and inscriptional/site problem.
• Evidence 1244 records: The scholarly discussion supports the c.1000-1001 inscriptional foundation route around Kokkala and a Shiva Vaidyanatha temple.
• Evidence 1245 records: The Khajuraho discussion makes a plausible but still inferential connection between Bijamandala and the temple foundation associated with the inscription.
• Evidence 4326 records: Offline judge treated existing inferon 211 (source_dependence) as support for Grahapati Kokkala inscription and Bijamandala identification route. Evidence strength: bounded but below-publication structural/source inferon; sufficient for L2 review, not for article promotion. The accountable path is EvidencePath 1272.

Evidence ledger

• Evidence 1242: Wikipedia, Grahapati Kokkala inscription, article. The page gives lead context for an inscription, temple foundation, and later site-identification question. Role: Lead context.
• Evidence 1243: Cunningham, Report of a Tour in Bundelkhand and Malwa, archaeological report. Cunningham supplies older archaeological sourcebook context for the Khajuraho remains and inscriptional/site problem. Role: Bibliographic control.
• Evidence 1244: Sumati-Jnana, Khajuraho inscription discussion, book section. The scholarly discussion supports the c.1000-1001 inscriptional foundation route around Kokkala and a Shiva Vaidyanatha temple. Role: Supporting evidence.
• Evidence 1245: Desai, Khajuraho, Khajuraho discussion. The Khajuraho discussion makes a plausible but still inferential connection between Bijamandala and the temple foundation associated with the inscription. Role: Supporting evidence.
• Evidence 1246: Desai, Khajuraho, Khajuraho discussion. The site identification remains an inference from later archaeological and art-historical synthesis, not direct survival of a named temple in ordinary record. Role: Counterevidence.
• Evidence 4326: Offline existing-inferon judge ledger control source, existing_inferon_judge_promote:inferon:211. Offline judge treated existing inferon 211 (source_dependence) as support for Grahapati Kokkala inscription and Bijamandala identification route. Evidence strength: bounded but below-publication structural/source inferon; sufficient for L2 review, not for article promotion. The accountable path is EvidencePath 1272. Role: Noetic interpretation.

Counterarguments

• Evidence 1246 weakens or qualifies the inference: The site identification remains an inference from later archaeological and art-historical synthesis, not direct survival of a named temple in ordinary record.

Confidence scores

• Direct attestation: 15
• Existence warrant: 66
• Specificity confidence: 58
• Reconstruction dependence: 70
• Counterevidence pressure: 0

What would change the score

• A direct attestation would move this out of the inferred catalogue.
• Stronger independent evidence would raise the warrant or specificity.
• Better counterevidence would lower the warrant or force retirement.
