The casket had two inscriptions. The lid carried the \*Pratītya-samutpāda\* text and the body of the casket an inscription with the date 127 in the Kathika era. It says that this Mahā-stūpa was built near the Mahā-vihāra when the ruler Rudrasena was ruling. Sādhu, Agnivarman and Sudarśana were responsible for the work and that the casket contained the relics of Daśabala, i.e. Buddha. The relics (a small quantity of ash) were placed in a gold bottle in a copper box that was protected by the stone casket.
