# Ganesha

The image depicts the four-armed elephant-headed god Ganesha seated in the ardhaparyankasana pose on a pedestal. Ganesha is shown carrying a battle axe and a sweet, but the other attributes in his hand are not clearly visible. The modeling of this image appears to be quite crude.

- **Kind:** artefact
