About  8 km,  northwest of Taulihawa, there is ano
ther  site  of  archaelogical  importance . The site has 
quadrangular  tank  surrounded  by bushes, locally known
as  Niglisagar .  On  the western Bank of the tank there
are  two  broken  pieces of the Ashokan pillar, the long
er one laying  flat  and the shorter ones stack into the
ground . The  pillar bears  2  peacocks  on the top part 
and  a  Devanagari  script  inscription  reading Om mani 
Padme Hun Ripu mallasya Chiran Jayut 1234.’

      The  shorter  portion  of  the  pillar  which  is 
partly  buried  in  the  ground measures 1.52m in length 
bears  four lines  of  Ashokan inscription in the Brahmi 
script which roughlytranslates as:"King Piyadasi Beloved 
of the gods,after14 years of his coronation enlarged for 
the  second   timethe  stupa  of Buddha kanaka Muni, and 
after  20  years  of his coronat ion he came himself and 
worshipped ( and ) he  caused ( this) stone pillar to be 
erected:"
