Zwalf 1985

Another example of Burmese votive plaques of Indian type shows the Buddha beneath a triple arch and a parasol, in the earth-touching gesture associated with Bodh Gayā. The tree is shown by branches with the unmistakable Bodhi leaf. The small surrounding Buddhas in pearled niches with indications of a tree above and around them are a series of twenty-eight predecessors of the 'historical' Buddha. Two ‘stūpas’ fill spaces at the top, and a line of Burmese characters runs at the bottom of the impression.

Among these names, Aniruddha was King of Arimaddhanapura ( Pagan ) in the 11th Century. Cipe of the same period claimed to be the Chief Queen ( Mahesi ), Perhaps she was Aniruddha's queen. Sri Maha Salini probably was of the royal family of Aniruddha as the prefixes Sri Maha to her names suggest. Divacariyena and Suddhammah were the names of two senior monks of that time.
