ör indüfated TufTa more and more resemblèd 

 the Culburga, Calliani and Bezoara veins of 

 stone ; and I do not hesitate to aver, that we 

 here foimd the Quarries^ where all the immense 

 materials required for the City and Temp les of 

 Brambana^ and even f^r other Cities also, might 

 have been found. 



This discovery also corroborates the tradition of 

 a City being here founded by a Foreign Colony, 

 whose Artists being ingenious, chose a spot near 

 to the best materials; this circumstancc also bas 

 some analogy to tbe observation of so many Ca- 

 verns^ Sculptures and Architectural Decorations 

 being found in the vicinity of great Capitals^ 

 and of Quarries of ready wrought stone. Be« 

 zoara^ Ellora^ Canara^, Curla, Mavellipooramj 

 and finally Brambana bear evidence to this fact; 

 and if we sbould discover the same stile, drape*- 

 ry^ andemblems, in each of these places, wc mis^ht 

 suspect that in the same Government, Empire 

 and People, these marks of refined superior skill 

 in Architect originated. Might not Guzerat 

 furnish some lights on this subject ? 



We descended the Hill about half past one^ 

 and returned througb the mire and rain, a good 

 deal fatigued^ to the China-maii's D welling at 

 Brambaua.
