Hand description:
The lettering is characteristic of the seventh century CE. Long ī is not distinguished from short i in this text.
The four sides of the possibly square stone are inscribed with one or two lines. The stone has been broken into fragments; only two of them are available to us. The side which is beleived to be complete and the begining of the text is called Face A. Moving in circumambulatory direction, what we call Face B is inscribed with one line of about 12 syllables are partly ligible. The right part of the face is lost. The next side, Face C, is completely lost. Always in anti-circumambulatory direction, the last side, Face D, has two lines. Only the right part is preserved. About 15 syllables in each line are partly legible.
Language: Sanskrit.
