The well-known and richly illustrated manuscript of the Pancharaksha, now in the Cambridge University Library, was commissioned by Queen Uddaka during the reign of King Nayapala in the year 14, or around 1054. Very likely, she was one of Nayapala's queens. This may be the only example of an illuminated manuscript commissioned as a royal benefaction by a Pala queen...
