窣覩波: Pronounced 孫 + 骨 fanqie. This is Sanskrit. In the Tang language, it is called “elevated and prominent place,” and is also termed a “square mound”; that is, the place where the fractured-body relics of the Tathāgata are deposited. Old translations sometimes have 蘇偷婆 (sūtóupó) or 塔婆 (tǎpó), which are all corruptions of the Sanskrit.
