TEXT.

. . . . . . . . . . . . sa màtu Kuìbàyà sóchi

____________________________________
Kuìbà 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 (triùóla) with a wheel (chakra) between them. The symbol in No. 17 is a trident evidently on a shrine. (RCh)
