Extract

This inscription of great historical importance was discovered by the copyists of J. F. Fleet in 1884 and was first published by him in the Indian Antiquary, XV, in 1886. He subsequently included it in the Corpus Inscriptionum Indicarum, Vol. III, which he edited and which was published in 1888. Sir R. G. Bhandarkar published some corrections to the text and translation in JBBRAS, XVII (1887–89). F. Kielhorn published the correction of a reading in verse 31 which much improved the sense. The late A. L. Basham presented a fresh study of this epigraph, in his paper read at the symposium on the Gupta Period of Indian history at Carlton College in Northfield, Minnesota, in 1977. The papers presented at this symposium have now been printed under the title Essays on Gupta culture
