YEH PULU


In 1925 a group of archeologists excavated this relief, a large piece of artwork carved on a steep river bank. It is an account of the common workers, displaying the forms working blacksmiths, walking fruit sellers, and many other daily activities.

athe experts believe that this carving is the oldest artwork to express the non traditional themes. Only a piece of traditional form remains here, a statue of sitting Ganesha. The history of this relief cannot dated exactly but it is believed that it was carved sometime around the 14th century .
