Penelitian terhadap Prasasti Plosorejo menghasilkan beberapa temuan baru yang mampu berkontribusi menambah data dalam sejarah Indonesia kuno. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian epigrafi atau text-aided archaeology dengan data teks yang menjadi fokus utama untuk merekonstruksi sejarah Indonesia kuno dengan temuan monumental yang minim. Tulisan ini menyajikan kritik internal berupa hasil alih aksara, analisis struktur, dan analisis penanggalan. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah menunjukkan bahwa Prasasti Plosorejo memiliki dua bagian, yaitu Prasasti Plosorejo A dan B. Struktur prasasti menunjukkan indikasi bahwa prasasti memiliki dua penanggalan yang mengawali dua ketetapan berbeda mengenai sīma yang saling berkaitan. Penanggalan yang masih terbaca dalam Prasasti Plosorejo, yaitu 852 Ś/930 M adalah penanggalan yang mengawali Prasasti Plosorejo B. Prasasti diterbitkan pada tahun tersebut atau sebelumnya. Dengan penanggalan tersebut, sosok Sri Maharaja yang namanya tidak lagi dapat dibaca merujuk pada tokoh Siṇḍok. Oleh karena itu, Prasasti Plosorejo berada pada jajaran prasasti-prasasti awal Masa Siṇḍok
