Of the four Pds exposed in the excavation at UJJAIN the find of two seals of ivory has helped in dating Pd II with the NBPW [11.16] and its associated ceramics. The seals—one reading *Gosahatikasa* and the other perhaps *Pattilasa* written in early Brāhmī script assignable on palaeographic grounds to the 3rd-2nd century B.C.—provide the upper limit of the chronological range of the Pd.
