Dr Mughal confirms that a number of inscriptions in Arabic language were discovered close to the Grand Mosque of Banbhore and one such inscription is dated 109 AH/ 727-8 AD. He discloses that some undated inscriptions or those with worn-out dates have been found to have carvings showing a human face or a flower motif. The face of such carvings, he states, was “found to be turned inside the wall as if to conceal the carving from public view.” These carvings, he believes, perhaps belonged to a temple that was destroyed by the Arabs after the conquest of the city, and the material was reused in the construction of a mosque. He also reveals that a large number of potsherds bearing Arabic inscriptions in floriated Kufic-style have also been discovered.
