| Furthermore,
the brahmashila of Phase I continued to be used in Phase II and Phase III which proves the
Hindu tradition that the place of linga installation should remain the same irrespective
of the reconstructions. Parenthetically, it also explains why the proposed new Somanatha

regarding this was obtained from the excavations and whatever has been recorded below is
either circumstantial or inferential. |
