Kuмbа of No. 17 is evidently identical with the donor of No. 16. The writing of the two
epigraphs is very similar. But the pictorial symbols at the end are different. In No. 16
this symbol consists of two tridents (triщуla) with a wheel (chakra) between them. The
symbol in No. 17 is a trident evidently on a shrine. (RCh)
