THE NUMBERING OF THE PLANS AND INSCRIPTIONS. 
As it is necessary to enable a reader to find any given stone readily on the Plan, the numbering 
of the blocks must be in sequence as they lie on the ground : and as it is necessary to arrange 
the inscriptions in chronological order, the numbering of the inscriptions must be in sequence 
as they are here printed. Hence nearly every block has two numbers, one on the Plan, the 
other in the inscriptions, The plates of inscriptions have the inscription number at the top 
right-hand corner of each inscription; fragments of the same monument bearing the same 
number, accompanied by a letter (39a, 39b, &c.) ; also below each inscription is the number 
of the monument on the Plan, so that its position can be readily found. The numbers on 
the Plan begin at the west-end, or entrance, and go to the east-end, running in lines from 
side to side, in whatever way the blocks could be most nearly strung in sequence. The 
same number is repeated to the fragments of the same object, so that blocks belonging one 
to another can be easily observed. The numbering is continuous in the two Plans, the second 
Plan being a larger scale drawing of part of the first, in which only the most important stones 
were entered. As it may be needful to refer from the Plan to the inscriptions, the following 
are the numbers on the Plan, followed by the number of the inscription. A list comprising 
all the blocks will be given when the remainder of the inscriptions are published.

At the top left-hand corner of each plate the proportion is stated which the drawings 
bear to the monuments; these proportions are approximate, but every object on a plate 
is reduced to the same scale.
