All these works are in existence at Udaipur and were seen with Champalal, a descendant of Mandan, by Prof. S. R. Bhandarkar, as mentioned by him in his "Report of a Second Tour in search of Sanskrit manuscripts in Rajputana and Central India in 1905-6 A.D." Maharana Kumbha himself wrote a treatise on the art of building Kirtisthambhas (Towers of Victory or Fame), based on principles of Jaya and Aprajit, and had it engraved on stone tablets and fixed in the lower part of the Tower of Victory. A part of the first tablet, found at Chitor and since deposited in the Udaipur Museum, gives Maharana Kumbha- karan's description of the characteristic features of Towers according to Jaya and Aprajit 168
