The technique of its construction is different from that of the Jagannath one, inasmuch as here a system of brick platforms of receding dimensions with the outer facing of baked brick and with tiers of clay and burnt brick in the interior has been employed. The reliquary \[12.8\] consists of a pot painted in black bands on lightbrown, somewhat of the type found at RANGMAHAL in the Kushan period \[11.24\]. This \*stūpa\* can be dated on numismatic and ceramic evidences to between c. 1st century B.C. and 2nd century A.D. The \*stūpa\* seems to have been destroyed by floods. - [Previous: v2.c42.329](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c42.329) - [Next: v2.c42.331](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c42.331) - [Up: v2.c42](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c42) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c42.330](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c42.330) · Pramāṇa
