Dear Indologists,
In “Prakrit Inscriptions from a Buddhist Site at Nagarjunikonda”, the Second Apsidal Temple Inscription F (EI, vol. 20, l. 1, p. 22), includes the names “Yava[na-] Da[mila- Pa]lura-“. Regarding these names, J. Ph. Vogel, the author, footnotes the following. “The words which I read Yavana-Damila-Palura are not quite certain. The Da of Damila is still legible and the long-drawn top strokes of the remaining two aksharas, have led me to the conjectural reading mila, the body of the akshara m being partly preserved. The Pa of Palura is conjectural.” I would like to know if any later work (like ERC’s DHARMA project) has been done on this inscription that brings more certainty to the reading. Thank you in advance. Regards, Palaniappan
