H. Rivett-Carnac —Hough Notes on some 
can conveniently levy contributions on all passers-by. The temple will 
not be found marked on the one-inch-to-the-mile map of the Great Trigo¬ 
nometrical Survey, but it is locally known by the name of Chandeshwar, 
and the above description will perhaps be sufficient to enable any who care 
to visit the spot to find its position without difficulty. 
3. About two hundred yards south of the temple, towards the middle 
of the defile, and to the right hand of the traveller from Ranikhet to Dwara- 
Hath, a rock partly covered with low brushwood rises at an angle of 45° to 
the height of some seventy feet above the stream. The rock has been much 
worn by the action of heat and damp, and to a passer-by would not at first 
sight appear to possess any interest, but when carefully examined in a 
good light, it will be found to be covered with “ cup marks” and sculptur- 
ings, the principal forms of which have been figured in the accompanying 
rough sketches. 
4. A reference to Sketches I to Y in the accompanying plates will 
shew that in Europe, the “ cup marks” or holes scooped out on the 
face of the rock, and noticed by me at the meeting of the Society 
above referred to, predominate. On the Chandeshwar Rock in a space 
measuring 14 feet in height by 12 in breadth, upwards of 200 such marks 
may be counted. They are of different sizes, varying from six inches 
to an inch and a half in diameter, and in depth from one inch to half 
an inch, and are generally arranged in perpendicular lines presenting many 
permutations in the number and size and arrangement of the cups. 
These exactly correspond with the “ First Type” of the marks found 
in Europe described at page 2 of Sir J. Simpson’s work above referred to, 
and figured in many of the plates with which his book is illustrated. 
5. In the portion of the rock shewn in Plate II, commencing from 
left to right and taking the upper ledge, first comes a row of four small 
cups, then three rows of cups each 3i inches in diameter, the first line 
containing nine, the second seven, and the third seven cups. Then follows 
a row of 15 cups somewhat smaller in diameter, the 11th and 15th (the 
last) of which are distinguished by an incised ring surrounding each cup, 
corresponding exactly with the “ Second Type” figured at Plate i, and 
described in page 4, of Sir J. Simpson’s work. 
G. Then follow three lines containing respectively 17, 14, and 15 
small “cups”. The 13th and 17th (the last) cups of the first row are 
“ringed” and belong to the “ second type”. The last cups of the second 
and third line are distinguished by what Sir J. Simpson describes (page 5) 
as a “ groove or gutter”, leading from the cups downwards, and of which 
several specimens will be found figured in his work. The next group of 
three lines consists of 8, 7, and 6 small cups respectively, surrounded by 
three lines in the shape of a fork. Then follow 11 lines, first two lines
