stone stela Shwedaga gate of the city-wall, Sriksetra
Version: (bd0ad9f), last modified (bd0ad9f).
Bibliography
First reported in ASB (in Burmese): a Pali inscription of some 29 lines (Aung Thaw gives 28 lines), of which lines 22-29 are transliterated in Burmese script. More or less the same information is reported in Aung-Thaw1993, along with a transliteration of the same legible lines, though with some changes. Skilling1997a cites Aung Thaw and provides a Romanized transliteration (identified as 3 lines of the Mora-paritta and four lines of the Maṅgala-sutta). Sein Win [cin vaṅḥ] 2016, pp. 112–7 also provides a reading for the legible portions. Re-edited here from an estampage as the Historical Research Commission, Yangon.
