Remarks
This short inscription is written not only upside down, but also in the reverse form. One may find that the top portion of the letters is at the bottom while their base is at the top. Further, the letters are incised reverse as found in the matrix of a seal. The name of the place referred to in the record seems to be 'Upiūr'. Possibly, Ātan Cāttan was the resident of the cavern. T.V. Mahalingam, op. cit., p. 286.
