^[1]See classification II, 1, a (names derived from the appearance of the body).
^[2]Lüders’ treatment of this inscription is missing.
^[3]From the eye-copy of Cunningham. Barua-Sinha correct and restore the rest of the inscription as suchi dānaṁ. sā, however, is quite distinct in Cunningham’s copy.
^[4]The translations of Barua-Sinha ‘The rail-gift of Yamila’, ‘The rail-gift of Yamendra’ need no discussion. The name has remained unclassified.
^[5]From the eye-copy of Cunningham. An inked impression received by Dr. D. C. Sircar, Ootacamund, in September 1959 shows that Cunningham’s eye-copy gives the correct reading. In an article prepared for EI., Vol. XXXIII (1959/60) - kindly made available to us – Dr. Sircar says: “In the word suchi, the letter v had been originally written for ch, though an attempt was later made by the engraver to rectify the error by adding a vertical stroke to the right lower end of v. There is a mark at the upper left corner of the letter which, taken with the sign for medial i, looks like the medial sign for ī as found in slightly later epigraphs. But the mark appears to be due to a flaw in the stone”.
^[6]See classification II, 3, a (names derived from birth).
