In the native State of Kotei, East Borneo, several inscribed stones have been discovered. These are undated documents. On the palaeographical ground they have been placed between A.D. 400 and 450.⁵ All the four inscriptions⁶ are written in Sanskrit and record the gifts made by king Mulavarman. To commemorate the gifts sacrificial pillars were erected. These pillars, like those of Asoka, are of considerable architectural interest. They are thoroughly original, Brahmanical in religion and Indian in design, and the most elegant productions of Indian art.⁷
