⁴ Parker, *Ancient Ceylon*, pp. 219, 244; Bell, *A. S. Rep.*, 1896, p. 8; photo. A. 183, not suitable for reproduction. The other great image at the same place (photos. A. 181, 182), with a Siamese look, appears to be many centuries later. Mr. Bell dates the Tantrimalai figures about A.D. 1200 (*A. S. Rep.*, 1907, p. 34). He does not distinguish the one which seems to be ancient.
