c15.s3.t1.11

(iv) Pl. XI. 4 is taken mainly from the Nidhanpur copper plate of Bhāskaravarman, but the Tippera plate of Lokanātha and the Kailan plate of Dhāraṇa Rāta have also been consulted. These inscriptions fall in the first half of the seventh century A.D. Many of the features seen in the Middle Ganges Valley at this time are found here. The head-marks are solid triangles. The right verticals are bent (*kuṭila*), but on the whole the ornamental forms are meagrely used.
