TRANSLATION. “ [The gift] of Mitrā, the danghter of Gosala."
XVI.-FRAGMENT FROM THE LOWER PART OF AN IMAGE FROM
RAMNAGAR, The carving of this image is very nearly gone, the outline being barely recognisable. The inscription also is in a very bad state of preservation. It is important as it mentions the name of [Adhi]chchhatra. The inscription consists of a single line.

XVII.-FRAGMENT OF A TABLET OF HOMAGE. This fragment was found in one of the entrances to the Brahmanical seotion of the Lucknow Museum. Nothing is known about its provenance. The inscription is fall of mortar and is in a bad state of preservation. The characters belong to the early Kushaņa period.

XVIII.-INSCRIPTION ON A TABLET OF HOMAGE FROM MATHURĀ.
A photograph and a full description of the subjoined tablet of homage have been published by Dr. Bühler. The inscription on it is very faint. I read from the original after bringing it ont in daylight and from two impressions made by Munshi Ghulam Nabi of the Archeological Survey, Northern Circle.
