Abstract

Epigraphy is a significant part of verifiable archaic exploration. It gives substantial realities, yet in
addition reveals insight into different parts of antiquated Indian history‒be it political, social, strict
or social. In this article an endeavor has been made to examine and break down engravings
engraved on two bits of pillars which have been recuperated from a cutting edge asphalt in the
Gwalior fortification and now saved in the Gujari Mahal Archaeological Museum of Gwalior. It is in
proto-Nāgarī script having 22 refrains in Sanskrit language. Pillars were essential for a sanctuary
maṇḍapa. A basic investigation of the pillar engraving arranges it in the last 50% of the 10th century
C.E. both based on palaeography just as on inner substance.
