It is composed of a single block of stone, I believe granite, but it has been so frequently and so thoroughly coated with oil, which is daily applied to it, that it looks like bronze. I tried to remove a portion of this epidermis in order to ascertain what was beneath, but was not successful. No other kind of stone, however, is used in any other part of the temple. - [Previous: v1.c19.s7.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.fergusson-1876.v1.c19.s7.3) - [Next: v1.c19.s7.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.fergusson-1876.v1.c19.s7.5) - [Up: v1.c19.s7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.fergusson-1876.v1.c19.s7) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.fergusson-1876.v1.c19.s7.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.fergusson-1876.v1.c19.s7.4) · Pramāṇa
