| Details | The pillar carries later carvings and a later inscription (not in the corpus and probably not published) connected to its use as a satī pillar. No other details are available except that it does not bear an image of the goddess Ṣaṣṭhī (as erroneously reported in PAIOC due to a misreading of yaṣṭhi.) |
