Terracotta relief. Male head. "What especially serves to give the male heads a more lifelike appearance is that the eyes are set more deeply, and that prominence has given to the rims of the eyelies and the brows. This is clearly apparent from the type reproduced here, Pl. X, 2 and Pl. XI, 7. The head, which is adorned with moustaches and a beard, is set low on the shoulders. A jewel is suspended ...

Terracotta relief. Male head. "What especially serves to give the male heads a more lifelike appearance is that the eyes are set more deeply, and that prominence has given to the rims of the eyelies and the brows. This is clearly apparent from the type reproduced here, Pl. X, 2 and Pl. XI, 7. The head, which is adorned with moustaches and a beard, is set low on the shoulders. A jewel is suspended on a string round the neck. As the pate is bald, it is evidently an old man that is here represented. Each of the two examples included in the Hedin collection has a round hole in the crown of the head, communicating with the cavity in the interior of the figure." Montell 1936, p. 183.

Arkeologiskt föremål förvärvat i Borazan. Föremålen inköpta av Hedin från lokalbefolkningen. I brev hem av den 10 januari 1896 skriver Hedin: "Yesterday I visited the village of Borazan, where those remarkable Buddhist antiquities are found, but I made practically no discoveries. On the other hand the natives come along daily with their terracotta figures, pots, precious stones with engraved portraits, coins, Buddha images etc. ... and I have acquired a lot of these things cheaply enough. There is an old Tartar, of Orenburg, living here, by the name of Rafikoff, and he speaks Russian fluently. He has paid me several visits, and when I called upon him he presented me with a number of these antiquities." - cit Montell 1936 nr 7.
