A small record consisting of six to seven lines that has been published by eminent epigraphists several times, would require a fresh interpretation was almost beyond imagination. It was by chance that the Indian Museum displayed the Mahasthan stone plaque, and after seeing this record, several questions arose which demanded a fresh interpretation, and this enquiry finally culminated into this slim monograph.

The book attempts a re-reading of this inscription and also a fresh interpretation. It tries to situate this record in a broader canvas by interrogating the record along with several other evidences.
