exceedingly beautiful and fame-contributing pillar of stone which resembles the tip of the summit of the chief of mountains. 1. Šāntē : It is unnecessary to explain in detail the interpretation of this
word. The difficulty is, as Fleet correctly remarks, not the correct rendering of it, which is perfectly obvious, but to comprehend how it ever came to be read śāntēḥ, and to be interprected by "of the repose, i, e., death" i.e. "after the decease (of Skandagupta);" or, being read śāntē correctly, to comprehend how it ever came to be interprected as meaning."(the empire of Skandagupta) being quiescent," or "(the empire of Skandagupta) being extinct (for the hundred and forty-first year). "The correct interpretation appears to have been first pointed out by Bhau Daji; "in the year one hundred and forty-one, in the peaceful reign of Skandagupta" (JBBRAS.,
Vợl. VIII, p. 246.) 2. For some similar instances of second names, see page 254 above, note 3. 3. Indrān Bhagwantal Indraji, in his published version, first pointed out the kind
of meaning to be given to this word here (Ind. Ant., Vol. X, p. 126) 4. Adikartsin : lit. 'originaors.'Bhagwanlal Indraji first pointed out the correct
meaning of this word, as reffering here to five of the Tirthařkaras or sanctified teachers of the Jainas (Ind. Ant., Vol. X. p. 126 and note 16). See also SBE, Vol. XXII, pp. 224-25.
