Message Hello U Soe Lwin, Sorry to be so long between posts, but I've had a quite unsettled schedule lately. My knowledge of Pyu antiquities is just about zero. Perhaps the Pyu were influenced by Hinduism, as the fourth image appears to be of the deity Krishna. I've included a link below to another similar image. In any event, yours seems to have some age, based on its honest looking patina. I made a couple of visits to Bago and remember the experience fondly. It was one of the few places diplomats were permitted to drive their personal automobiles from Yangon at the time, which incidentally was before you were born. However, at your age, I still think you rate more than a 'maung'. Cheers, Bill H. Link :Krishna
