Ashoka's Edicts, Junagadh

3

Ashoka's Edicts are the inscriptions on rocks which were made during King Ashoka's ruling period. The rock edict is considered as the most important one among the many edicts of Ashoka. It is located on the Saurashtra peninsula of Junagadh in Gujarat. Since it is inscribed on the high mountain rocks of Girnar, the edict is not easily accessible by all. The inscription is in Brahmi script, which claims to be the oldest script that was used in India.
