Epigraphists have dated it on paleographical grounds and paleographical dating has severe limitations when it comes to precision. Paleographists can only give ballpark figures (+/- 100 years per KVR per Saloman) and further refinement and vetting is the task of historians, linguists, anthropologists, historical linguists etc.,. And across disciplines, 450/5th CE is near unanimous.

Every single work that has anything to do with Kannada language, literature, script, history etc., mentions this inscription without fail.. and clearly as we have found out, 450/5th CE is the clear favourite. Also, Burton Stein and Irfan Habib (good heavens!) are the last people we'd expect to find squatting on an article having to do with Kannada historiography. Stein atleast has done some work on Vijayanagara (and Cholas and general south Indian history) but I havent seen Habib within a hundred miles of anything having to do with Kannada and Karnataka! And you think his view is representative of Kannada historiography?! Pray, where are the real experts - the ones who have actually worked in the fields of Kannada/Karnataka/South India/Dravidian languages etc,.?</dd></dl> <dl><dd>As for your remaining blah blah.. I'll just say that dont know what you're talking about.. but it does seem rather out of place here. You might want to check on those articles' own talk pages.

In addition, you have misunderstood what epigraphists do, as evidenced by your remark, "Your highlighting of just the epigraphists' dating is POV and UNDUE."</dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>First, Salomon says a little more than what you are making him out to say. What he really says is: <blockquote> <p><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://books.google.com/books?id=XYrG07qQDxkC&dq=indian+epigraphy&pg=PP1&ots=nhUOnXOex8&sig=yYS1moTzdxKnqO-lSLidvC31Ggc&hl=en&prev=http://www.google.com/search?q=indian+epigraphy&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&sa=X&oi=print&ct=title&cad=one-book-with-thumbnail#PPA168,M1">"In the cases—all too frequent, especially among earlier inscriptions—where a record has no explicit date, or only a date whose absolute value cannot be definitely ascertained, epigraphists must resort to estimating the date on the basis of a paleographic analysis by comparing the script of the undated inscription with specimens of similar scripts from other dated or undated inscriptions. Because this method is inherently imprecise, paleographic dating should in general be treated as a last resort. Other dating techniques, such as historical analysis based on references to persons or events of known date, or chronological analysis based on linguistic or archaeological data, may supersede or be used in conjunction with paleographic estimates. But the fact remains that, since so many inscriptions are undated or inadequately dated, paleographic dating, imperfect as it may be, must be employed in a great many cases." (Salomon, 1998, pp. 168-169.)</a></p></blockquote></dd> <dd>Second, epigraphy is an all encompassing term which includes the fields of paleography, historical linguistics, and archeology when they are marshaled in the study of stone inscriptions. Epigraphists, therefore, do multiple duty, as historical linguists, historians, paleographers and archeologists. For example, <a href="/wiki/D._C._Sircar" class="mw-redirect" title="D. C. Sircar">D. C. Sircar</a>, especially later in life, was better known as a historian of ancient India. Similarly <a href="/wiki/G._S._Gai" title="G. S. Gai">G. S. Gai</a> is a historical linguist of repute; along with <a href="/wiki/A._N._Narasimhia" title="A. N. Narasimhia">A. N. Narasimhia</a> and T. V. Venkatachala Sastry he is among the three leading scholars of Old Kannada. All that Salomon is saying is that, for an undated inscription, an epigraphist should first use tools of historical linguistics and archeology (two fields I mentioned above), and only then those of paleography. He is certainly not saying that the dating of inscriptions should take into account the views and passions of Kannada poets in a literary academy (Sahitya Akademi) who are drafted to write a page or two in a literary encyclopedia, much less of journalists writing enthusiastically about an "historical" event (the Hindu newspaper article). Those, sadly, were the <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Halmidi_inscription&oldid=186371741#Notes">references</a> you had in this article before <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Halmidi_inscription&oldid=209088672#References">my references</a> were added.</dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>More importantly, it was the <i>original dating</i> (as well as K. V. Ramesh's defense of it) that used only paleographic arguments (see the main page). Gai, for example, uses different arguments in his alternative dating. Gai does not believe that Halmidi is an inscription issued in the name of Kadamba Kakusthavarman at all, but rather in the name of a less ruler who lived a century later and who was only maternally related to the Kadambas. His analysis is textual, based on how certain terms were used in pre-Old-Kannada and on comparison to other Kadamba inscriptions; in addition, as a supportive argument, on paleographical grounds, he differs with M. H. Krishna's original dating.</dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>I'm afraid you are wrong in your assessment of both <a href="/wiki/Burton_Stein" title="Burton Stein">Burton Stein</a> and <a href="/wiki/Irfan_Habib" title="Irfan Habib">Irfan Habib</a> as well. Stein was not only one of the leading historians of Karnataka, but—on D. R. Nagaraj's evidence—his work has long overtaken the work of K. N. Sastry and other older historians. Irfan Habib is one of the great historians of medieval India, and is not only a specialist in his area of specialty, but also a generalist of great breadth: he is the general editor of the <i>Cambridge Economic History of India</i> and of the <i>UNESCO History of Humanity, volumes IV and V</i>; moreover, he has stated his assessment of "the 6th or 7th century" for the earliest Kannada inscriptions, in the "India" chapter of the <a href="/wiki/UNESCO" title="UNESCO">UNESCO</a> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.unesco.org/culture/humanity/">History of the Humanity, volume IV</a>. (See the <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Halmidi_inscription&oldid=209088672#References">References</a> in <a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Halmidi_inscription&oldid=209088672">my version of the Halmidi inscription page</a>). In a summary article, especially in such a widely respected history, he is obviously making that statement on the basis of a survey of the available literature.</dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>In conclusion, I stand by my original statement, that it is epigraphists (scholars who study "written matter recorded on hard or durable material" in Britannica's characterization) who date inscriptions. Not poets and journalists, or even scholars in other fields who perfunctorily mention a date for the sake of completeness. The editors of Encyclopedia Britannica (in the 2008 article on Kannada literature) or historians like <a href="/wiki/Irfan_Habib" title="Irfan Habib">Irfan Habib</a> in the UNESCO <i>History of Humanity</i> weigh evidence in the <i>epigraphic</i> literature, when they conclude that the earliest Kannada inscriptions belong to the 6th or 7th century. It is imperative that we do the same. <a href="/wiki/User:Fowler%26fowler" title="User:Fowler&fowler"><span style="color:#B8860B;">Fowler&fowler</span></a><a href="/wiki/User_talk:Fowler%26fowler" title="User talk:Fowler&fowler"><span style="color:#708090;">«Talk»</span></a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Halmidi_inscription#c-Fowler&fowler-2008-04-30T05:07:00.000Z-Sarvagnya-2008-04-30T00:23:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">05:07, 30 April 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Fowler&fowler-2008-04-30T05:07:00.000Z-Sarvagnya-2008-04-30T00:23:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Fowler&fowler-2008-04-30T05:07:00.000Z-Sarvagnya-2008-04-30T00:23:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Fowler&fowler-2008-04-30T08:24:00.000Z-Fowler&fowler-2008-04-30T05:07:00.000Z"></span>PS I am ignoring of course, your uncivil asides, "it would appear rather uneducated or uninformed," or "As for your remaining blah blah.." or "You might want to check on those articles' own talk pages.
