c17.s6.3

(ii) Pl. XI. 10 is taken from the inscription of the *mahānāvika* (great navigator) Buddhagupta. The letters have notched head-marks, and their forms agree with those of the inscriptions of Pūrṇavarman from Java. The medial vowels are also of the same type except that the ornamental extensions are not found here. The inscription may be dated in the early sixth century A.D.
