Abstract

The author is grateful to the owners who allowed him to photograph the following selected pieces of Hindu icons in their collections and publish them for an academic interest. They most probably seem to have been robbed from different ruined temples around Chinji Village, situated about a kilometre from Kallar Kahar towards Talagang in the Punjab province of Pakistan . . .
