Dt Delhi, its s. rampart cut by Delhi-Mehrauli road, believed to be the extension made by the Cāhamāna king Pṛthvīrāja III (1179-92), also known as Rai Pithora, to the original fortress of LAL KOT built by Anaṅgapāla of the Tomara dynasty. Part of the Qila near Hodre-ka-Bagh was excavated in 1957-8 by the writer on behalf of the ASI to examine the nature of the ramparts (\*IAR 1957-8\*, p. 25). The excavation touched the foundations of the rampart 4·88 m below the present top of the rampart here. On either face of the 6·10 m wide rampart there is a stone wall 75 to 90 cm thick, and the core is filled with earth. The lower part of the rampart is built with stone rubble and the upper with rectangular cut stones. Inside the rampart substantial stone structures have been exposed, the earlier ones running parallel to the rampart with e.-w. orientation, while the later ones show an oblique n.-e. to s.-w. orientation. The houses are well-built and include floors and ovens. Y.D. SHARMA ### [v2.c43.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c43.5) \*\*Quilandy\*\*, Dt Kozhikode.
