No. 6.-TWO INSCRIPTIONS FROM BODH-GAYA.
BY VINODA VIRABI VIDYAVINODA.
The earliest of these inscriptions was discovered by Mr. J. D. Beglar during the restoration of the great temple at Bodh-Gaya. The discovery was announced by the late Pandit Bhagwan Lal Indraji in 1885.26 Pandit Bhagwan Lal's version of the text is not very accurate, and I have been trying for some time to re-edit it. A facsimile was published by Sir Alexander Cunningham in 1892.97 The stone itself could not be traced either in the Indian Museum or at Bodh Gayi. After the death of Mr.J. D. Beglar his library and collection of antiquities were purchased by the Archæological Survey of India. This collection of Antiquities
