The Antiquities of Orissa v1.c7.18

v1.c7.18

An examination of the image shows that it is upside down. Let's read it oriented correctly (180° rotation): If rotated 180 degrees:
- Top label becomes: "PLATE VIII" (currently upside down at the top/right: wait, looking closely at "PLATE VIII", the letters P-L-A-T-E V-I-I-I are printed at the top margin when right side up? No, looking at "PLATE VIII", the text is upside down. The letters are inverted: "PLATE VIII" is oriented upside down, with letters pointing downwards. Wait! Look at the text: `PLATE VIII` - wait, the letters P, L, A, T, E are inverted: P has the loop on bottom right, L is upside down, A is inverted (point down), T is inverted (crossbar at bottom). So the entire page is upside down (rotated 180°)! Wait, let's verify numbers:
- "17." near the strip: upside down "17." (looks like `˙LI`)
- Scale near 17: "0 1 2 3" inverted: `0 1 2 3`
- "14." near the middle L-shaped band: inverted "14."
- "16." near the long horizontal band: inverted "16."
- The scale near 14: inverted "0 1 2 3"
- The scale near the other ornament: inverted "0 1 2 3"
