| Locus | On the northern face of the Rockfort hill in the hazardous passage to the cave on the western side.The inscription is lost. Edited from an old and not very legible estampage. | |
| No. of lines | 1 | |
| Length | --- | |
| Date | ca. 3rd century B.C.E. | |
| Notes |
1. The first three or four letters in the estampage are too illegible to be made out. 2. The last three letters are read tentatively 3. The reading ku pa ga gha ri in ARE (139 / 1937-38) seems to suggest that the inscription has been read upside down. |
