c13.s5.6

When we examine the archaeological evidence we find that most important dated image is one found at Sarnath, viz. the colossal standing Bodhisattva dated in the third year of Kanishka and dedicated by Bhikshu Bala of Mathura. After the discovery of this particular image another one, dated in the second year of Kanishka, and made of the same kind of Mathura red sand-stone, was found at Kauśāmbī.
