Afaie o« « Circle of Stones situated in the District of EyLsoofzye, by 

 Colonel Sir Arthur Phayre, Member of the Asiatic Society of 

 Bengal. ("With a plate.) 



(Vide Proceedings A. S. Bengal, for January, 1870.) 



About fifteen miles east of Murdan, the head quarter station of the 

 corps of guides, in Eusoofzye, near a place called Sung Butte, is a 

 remarkable circle of tall upright stones. These stones, or masses of 

 rock, consist of rough slabs of granite, with a few squared, or other- 

 wise worked pillars of the same material. Only ten of what appear 

 to be of the original size, are now in an upright position. The rest 

 lie upon the ground, some broken and some half buried in the 

 ground. Two or three though still upright are the mere stumps of 

 the original stones. The accompanjdng plate will render detailed 

 description unnecessary, but a few remarks may be acceptable. 



The circle has been over fifty feet in diameter. The highest of the 

 pillars which remain upright, is about eleven feet. The largest of 

 the rough slabs, which have the appearance of being in the state in 

 which they were quarried from the rock, is about the same height, 

 two and a half feet broad in its broadest part, and two feet thick.
