### [c5.63](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.epigraphy.mackay-1935.c5.63)

Some distance to the south of the stupa mound is a large building which was probably a feature of the commercial life of the city. This is a spacious hall, some eighty-five feet square, with a roof supported by twenty rectangular brick piers set with great accuracy in four rows of five piers each. Owing to later building, to alterations, and denudation, the ground-plan is somewhat confused, especially on the northern and eastern sides, which are close to the slope of the mound.
