SAILARWADI. 247

Kuda caves,— but this has been hewn away to make room for a
small low chavaranga or Saiva altar.

Over this to the left is a cell, on the left end of the front wall of
which is an inscription recording its excavation by a person from
Dhanakataka, the capital of the Andhras. It agrees in the style of
its letters with those used by the Andhrabhrityas and is placed by
Bhagvanlal Indraji Pandit between the times of Vasishthiputra and
Gautamiputra II.

Crossing the ridge which connects the hill with another to the
west of it, there are other two small caves—monks' cells, no ways
noteworthy, and scarcely accessible.
