Excavations at a small town called Māt in the Mathurā district have disclosed the remarkable life-size statue of Kanishka (see Plate) and two other headless statues of kings. The name and titles of Kanishka are inscribed on his skirt in plain script. The details of his dress and equipment are of interest, and differ from those shown on the coins.²
