## Edition

⟨1⟩ Uvās(i)kāya Ehana⟨2⟩mātūyā sivalay(e) ⟨3⟩ dānaṁ

## Apparatus

⟨2⟩ sivalay(e) ⬦ sivaliya ARIE • Cf. sivalā in EIAD 317. What we
interpret as a vocalic marker -e is unsure, and might be an accident. We
expect an ending -yā, but -ye could be possible as well.

## Translation

Gift of the lay follower Sivalā (Śivalā), mother of Ehana.

## Bibliography

First described and edited in ARIE. Re-edited here from our photographs
and after autopsy of the stone.
