We may begin with sculptures (Pl. LXXI, Fig. 2, Pll. LXXII, LXXIII). These are both Brāhmanical and Buddhist. Among the former we may refer to the fine images of Viṣṇu and other deities near Takua Pa, at Pra Narai hill and Phru No,² those of Viṣṇu at Vieng Sra³ and at Srivisay hill⁴ between Bandon and Surat, those of Gaṇeśa and Naṭarāja Śiva⁵ whose place of origin is unknown, and a second Viṣṇu and a Śiva Bhairava⁶ from Vieng Sra.
