The Deopara Prashasti is a stone inscription eulogizing the Sena kings of Bengal. It was composed by Umapati Dhara, a minister in the court of Laksmana Sena (c. 1178-1206), who was also one of several court poets. The inscription particularly praises Laksmana Sena's grandfather Vijaya Sen (c. 1095–1158). The alphabet is a precursor of the modern Bengali alphabet, with 22 letters approximating the modern forms. The stone tablet was found in 1865 near the village of Deopara, now in Godagari Upazila of Rajshahi District of modern-day Bangladesh.
