preparation of wall: The rough surface of the naked stone walls was first covered with a layer of potter's clay taken from the slimy beds of pools and mixed with molasses, gum of a tree called Indian bdellium (commiphora mukul, pronounced as "dellium") and rice husks, with perhaps animal glue as a binding medium. On this a thin layer of lime plaster was applied as priming. The chapters dealing with painting in Vishnu-dharmottara, probably compiled during the 7th century AD, but containing information from earlier times, give 9details of the ingredients of clay plaster which show that it corresponded roughly with
the material used at Ajanta. The prescription according to this is as follows: "A buffaloskin was boiled in water until it became soft. Sticks were then made of the paste and dried in the sunshine. It is stated that if colour is mixed with this hard plaster, called vajralepa, it makes it fast, and if white mud is mixed with it, it serves as a perfect medium for coating the walls. Vajra-lepa coating was usually done in three layers over a plaster which consisted of powdered brick, burnt conches and sand, mixed with a liquid preparation of molasses and drops of a decoction of mudga (Phaseolus munga). To this a quantity of
mashed ripe bananas or tree resins and the pulp of bilva fruit (Aegle marmelos) was also added. After the mixture had dried it was again ground down and mixed with molasses and water until it became soft. The wall surface was washed down with water until it was thoroughly clean, and then the plaster was applied with a spoon. This was the two-fold process by which the wall was prepared for painting.
