San Sung Mon inscriptions
San Sung inscriptions found on an octagonal pillar at Lopburi, and now
kept in the National Library, Bangkok. Cædès first published a
reading and a translation of it (Cædès, 1925,1929), soon followed by
Halliday with a slightly different version (Halliday, 1930). The text,
a record of religious donations, comes in four pars, totolling 25
lines, deeply engraved and thus well-preserved and legible where the
stone has not flaked; the form of the script indicates the VIIIth or
the IXth century A.D., more likely the VIIIth. |
