(4) Mathura lintel inscription of king Vasu mentioning the building of a Mahāsthāna (the great shrine) of Bhagavān Vāsudeva which had a Vedikā, Toraṇa and a Chatuḥśāla. This inscription is of exceptional importance, for it mentioned king Vasu who according to the Nārāyaṇī Parva was the supreme patron of the Nārāyaṇī and the Sātvata Dharma. He was as we learn from this inscription a contemporary of Mahākshatrapa Shoḍasha (c. first century B.C.)
