Charchoma Inscribed Pillar
A supporting pillar of dark stone with splashes of colour, polished to a sheen. The height figure given here is an estimate. The pillar is square in cross-section to a height of about 150 cm from floor level, then octagonal for about 70 cm, ending in a fluted square capital. On the inscribed face, the top of the square section is occupied by the upper part of a lotus medallion, which is slightly more than half of a full circle. It is cut off horizontally at the bottom, and the inscriptions are below this point, No. IN00221 first and No. IN00222 immediately below. The cross-section of the upper part is octagonal and decorated with floral and geometric motifs.
Charchoma Inscribed Moulding (Stone 2)
A moulding block, the second from the doorway. Its depth has not been measured. The block, probably sandstone, is rounded at the top. The few characters inscribed on it as continuation of the lines on the main block do not seem to be in a recessed area.
Charchoma Inscribed Moulding (Stone 1)
A corner moulding block next to the doorway. The block, probably sandstone, is rounded at the top, and the inscribed area is a slightly recessed rectangular panel with a roughly cut surface. Its depth has not been measured.
Charchoma Inscribed Moulding
This is the exterior lower moulding of the Comeśvar Mahādev temple. The inscription is engraved mainly on one stone block, but the ends of some lines extend, just barely, to a second block. The inscribed surface is immediately to the right when facing the temple gate, and its top is about 60 cm above the temple platform. The inscription campus is slightly recessed in the main block, but this does not appear to be the case with the second, larger block. This may mean that the second block has been replaced and re-engraved, but a more likely explanation is that the engraving was carried out in a work phase separate from the carving of the recessed panel. There is, however, no indication that the inscription as a whole is a later copy.
