¹ Coomaraswamy, *Arts and Crafts of India and Ceylon* (Foulis, 1913), p. 40. See also the *Ostasiatische Zeitschrift*, 1914, p. 385 ff. The most remarkable example is that of the deer with four bodies and a single head. This design, found all over India, from the Ajaṇṭā Caves to Tanjore, is figured on a Chalcidian vase of the sixth cent. B.C. (*Morin Jean, Dessin des Animaux en Grèce*, fig. 156).
