At the proper left side of the temple of Susani, there is a 

 group of stone sculptures, consisting of nine devahs or salt- 

 tablets, a govardJm na or Brtistambha, and an image of some deity 

 Thev are partly in red sand-stone, and partly in Jesalmen stone. 

 Unfortunately, the frontal faces of all these records containing 

 the sculptures and the inscriptions, have been almost com- 

 plete! v covered by applications of vermilion, which in some 

 places has formed an incrustation more than three inches m 

 thickness. From the small portions of the stone that have 

 escaped the obliteration bv the vermilion, it appears that the 

 nine devaTts belong to the beginning of the Samvat ( entury 

 I20(.. and probably all refer to Rajput Chiefs. All of them 

 bear an inscription surmounted by a rilievo representing the 

 particular Chief whose death they commemorate, on horseback 

 aHd his sails standing at the left. In one case »£HP» 

 visible, as in the devn/1* of Ghanghana' The insertions on 

 the devafxs were verv short and incorrect if we are to judge irom
