Senart “these functionaries and others are my intermediaries: it is they who are occupied with the distribution of my alms …” (Inscriptions de Piyadasi, ii, p. 97), and it is explained (pp. 91–2) that the employment of the word mukha is similar to that of dvāra in the sense of “means” (separate Orissa Edicts, i, 3).
