Further sorting through the mass of stonework covering the site brought to light the bell, abacus and capital that had once crowned the Ashokan pillar. To the delight of the excavators the capital was in the form of four lions ‘standing back to back, each four feet in height’. Their heads had been knocked off but their bodies and limbs were still intact, “so boldly sculpted and the muscles and claws so accurately placed, that they might well be placed in comparison with many specimens of Gecian art.’ . . . .
