[INDOLOGY] Sculpture from Rajasthan -Thar Desert

[Martin Gansten]

The first part of the inscription is a date: /śrīḥ || saṃ 1854 varṣe (?) 
vaisāṣa sudi 15 vāre budha [...] /I can't quite make sense of the rest, 
at least not offhand, but Wednesday, sudi/śukla 15 of Vaiśākha in 
Vikrama saṃvat 1854 corresponds to 10 May, 1797 CE.

Best wishes,
Martin Gansten
