In the first part of this paper it was suggested that a cave was dedicated at Nasik either in or before the eighteenth year of the reign of Gautamïputra Śātakarṇi, and was given to people for whose benefit land previously enjoyed by Uṣavadāta was granted. Subsequently Śātakarṇi's mother, Gautamï Balaśrī, caused this cave to be enlarged by adding chambers which she claims to be her own benefaction. At that time I believed the veranda in cave No. 3 at Nasik to be the original cave dedicated by Gautamïputra Śātakarṇi and the remaining parts of the same cave to be the gift of his mother. During the last four years I had to visit Nasik repeatedly on duty and I have come to the conclusion that a portion of cave No. 3 of the Pandu Lena group, as it stands at present, must have been dedicated by Gautamïputra Śātakarṇi, and inscriptions No. 4 (Kshatrapa 13) and No. 5 (Kshatrapa 14) had been incised in the walls of this original cave before its enlargement by Queen Gautamī Balaśrī, when inscriptions Nos. 2 (Kshatrapa 18) and 3 (Kshatrapa 19) were incised on another wall.
