11 Some passages in the following lines on the boulder are indistinct on the impressions and, in some casos our reading has been influenced by Chakravarti's transoript.
13 Chakravarti : "The letter ti is rubbed off."
18 This is not a complete line. This shows that the crack and the hole in the rock were in existence at the time of engraving.
14 Chakravarti: "The first letter looks more like va than cha; the second is a cortain ba. There does not soom to be any other letter in between. I cannot connect bå with any word in tho context."
16 Chakravarti: "The letter ja is completely rubbed off." 16 Chakravarti :-"I cannot trace ata after this on tho rock."
162 Chakravarti : cha. 17 Chakravarti : "Only the lower portion of ma is visible on the rock." 16 Chakravarti: "This is only a half line which could not be continued because of a deep dopression on the
rook: "..
19 Chakravarti : "Makā is faintly visible on the rock." 10 Chakravarti: "This letter looks like ka on the rock." The following akshara may be sth.
1 Other versions have nicha or nichar, i.o. nicham, towards the south'. The reading intended here may bo nichiyam, i.e. nichyam, in the same sense.
» Chakravarti : "The letter da is faintly visible on the rock." # Chakravarti : "These letters are visible on the rock." * Chakravarti : "The letter ni is chipped off." * These two letters are engraved on the otber side of the crack.
