38. Cakravartin, with the seven jewels. Fragment of the marble casing of the stūpa of Jaggaypeṭa. Second century B.C. Madras Museum. Characteristic is the manner in which scarves, etc., dart off the body at a sharp angle, the manner in which the dhoti curls around the legs (figures of the minister and general). The latter convention also occurs on some of the early fragments from Amarāvatī.
