T h e first of the date sy~nbolsmust stand for 100. But
the name of king Rudradeva does not appear in the ancient
chronology at the date calculated with reference to this
reading. Tl~cepigraphy must belong to a period later than
111, IV, V and VI of our present series. If we read the
sy~ilbol as 200 then the date fits in with the regnal years
of Rudradeva 111, sou of Simhadeva, who ruled between
NS 288 and 294.

APPENDIX C
h fragment of a chronicle in the possession of F.M.
Kaiser Shumsher, which we call in short VK.
I bave followed L'. Petech in respect of the recoostruc-
tion of the illegible letters of the text as I bave found the
same correct. The reconstr~~ctionhas been done in the
light of V1.
The VK is written in ordinary paper and in the form
of a book, the pages being srnall alld joined together.
Other particulars are already given in the introductory
chapter.
