Описание: Historians have long been aware that human representations of the Buddha do not appear in archaeological records until the 2nd c BC: at least three centuries after the supposed life and times of Siddhartha Gotama. The earliest known representations of the sage are expressed abstractly by an assemblage of interchangeable symbols, including swastikas, tridents, flaming pillars, chariot wheels, human footprints, roaring lions and lotus flowers. Curiously, these same aniconic (non-human) representations of a Buddha are also applied to visual personifications of prehistoric (Vedic) gods and goddesses during early Buddhist time-periods.
