B. B. R. A. S., Vol. VI. and Vol. XIX, p. 409. In the first copy the name is clearly Sakasenasa, but in the second, which is Paṇḍit Bhagvânlâl's rubbing, something like an effaced mark for the vowel i appears above the first two consonants. The Paṇḍit, therefore, reads the name as Sirisenasa, but the k is distinct even in his copy. Siki cannot mean anything, wherefore it appears that the indistinct marks which do not occur in the first copy are due to some flaw in the rock, and do not represent the vowel i. Dr. Bhâu Dâji also read the name as Sakasenasa. But the copy of the inscription given in Plate LI. Vol. V. of the Archæological Survey of Western India and marked No. 14 leaves no doubt whatever on the point. The name there is distinctly Sakasenasa. Further confirmation if necessary will be found later on. It is therefore clearly a mistake to call the king Sirisena. - [Previous: c8.s3.122](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c8.s3.122) - [Next: c8.s3.124](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c8.s3.124) - [Up: c8.s3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c8.s3) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c8.s3.123](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.general.fleet-1882.c8.s3.123) · Pramāṇa
