The Spirit of the World ( On and Off)
The Rocks Transformed
In my previous post I showed you the rocks that were natural gifts to the southwestern coast of India. This is one of the reliefs that now adorn one of the rocks! These carvings were completed between the 5th and 8th centuries AD. The area is home to the biggest relief collection in the world and has another distinction.
Take a close look for those who have been in Cambodia. You will be struck by how much the carvings look like those at Angkor Wat. It is believed that this site in India was the source of inspiration for the masterpieces that adorn the area of Siem Reap.
