Hi Brian:
Thanks. No, Rock Edit XIII is not inscribed in the Kaliṅga region. In its stead, we have Separate Edicts I and II.

Having recently borrowed this book from my local library through their Hoopla app, I can confirm that it reads well in audio form. The pronunciations, while not always standard, usually are and are always perfectly intelligible. Based on Patrick’s arguments, I’m going to have to revise my Ashoka lectures for next year, though. Are there or are they not inscriptions about the Kalinga war near Kalinga itself? 

Best,
Brian

Use caution with links and attachments.
I am not sure anyone would want to listen to rather than read my Ashoka book. But here is a link with 70% discount if anyone feels like listening!! Best,
