Near

the Kalyani hall is a brick image of Buddha 50 feet high. Glazed terra-cotta tablets lying about give grotesque representations of men and animals—probably to illustrate incidents in the Ramfyana and Mahabharata poems, as is still the case in the monasteries. They seem to have belonged to a string course round the plinth of an old pagoda. ‘Another interesting ruin is an immense brick tower, called Kyaik-pun, formed of four colo al images of Buddha sitting cro -legged back to back, and facing the cardinal points: the height of each image is about 90 feet.” They represent the four Buddhas, Kakusandha, Kon a gamma, Ka apa, and Gotama. In the ruins of Yathe-myé (“hermit town”) hard by, are burnt clay tablets representing Buddha seated in a Chaitya, with the Buddhist profe ion of faith in Indian characters of the 6th century A.D.
