Ching Chao-jung 慶昭蓉. SI 3662 and SI 3663 — two wedge-shaped Kharoṣṭhī documents
from Niya in the Petrovsky Collection // Written Monuments of the Orient. 2(6), 2017. P. 17–34.
Two unedited wedge-shaped wooden documents SI 3662 and SI 3663
(= SI P 138/a and SI P 138/б, respectively) are deciphered in this paper. A preliminary
analysis of their content and physical features shows that SI 3663 is very probably the
wedge under-tablet to be bound with the wedge covering-tablet N. i. 17 found by Aurel
Stein at the N. I. site (Niya, China). SI 3662, a king’s instruction issued to Soṃjaka the
Cozbo, is in all probability from the Niya sites, too.
