Relief of bronze.
The small, beautifully made bronze Pl. VI, 24 may possibly have been part of the ornamentation of the roof of a miniature stupa. The lower edge of the seated lion is curved, probably in order that it may be placed as an ornament on the roof-three.

Relief of bronze.
The small, beautifully made bronze Pl. VI, 24 may possibly have been part of the ornamentation of the roof of a miniature stupa. The lower edge of the seated lion is curved, probably in order that it may be placed as an ornament on the roof-three. Ever since the very earliest days of Buddhism, stupas of various sized and materials have been used as reliquaries, ornaments on altartables, etc. Their prominence in the Khotan architecture in the 5th century A. D. was confirmed by the Chinese pilgrim Fa Hsien. Montell 1938, p. 86.

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.
