Siddham. The Asian Inscription Database | Narayana Chour Stele Inscription

Inscription carved on a stone stele found standing in Chaur Nārāyaṇa in the Kathmandu area of Naksāl. The first lines are illegible and so is the date. The names of the ruler and the dūtaka are effaced but the inscription has been attributed to Jayadeva II.
