Fig. 13: This carved wooden
toraṇa above the doorway of the ground floor shrine at Yetkhabāhā,
Kathmandu,
radiocarbon dated between 900 and 1030, compares closely with compositions
of the Jokhang lintel carvings such as
those of the Protector Maitreya and Dharma King Meditation chapels (von Schroeder
2001:Pls. 133A, 134A).
