I. — The present elevation replaces that published in the *B. É. F. E O.*, 1909, fig. 3 (cf. *ibid.*, p. 831), which, not being a normal section, had led us into error. The curve *a b* follows the original line of the *stūpa*; the whole portion situated to the right of the point *b* and marked by divergent hatchings represents the terrace subsequently added, under which is at present buried the ancient base with its decoration already half accomplished. (Cf. pp. 208 n. 1 and 210.)
