Hi everyone
I need to translate the following inscription It should be in Thaï, maybe archaic . It belongs to a Buddha. I know it's not a weapon but I hope somebody from this forum can help. I know that usually it gives a date and an era, It might also give the name of a temple… Thanks |

I do believe that it is Thai, though Khmer is a possibility since the Thai script is derived from that. Unfortunately I cannot translate it. Maybe Khung Deng (AKA Dan) will be able to once he resurfaces.

I guess not. That is an odd statue, though, no? Does it have a medical connection, or what's with the blood vessels?

Can you get a better picture of the text?
I know someone who may be able to translate it - only maybe. |

The interesting thing (to me, anyway) about the statue is that it depicts Buddha as an ascetic. This was a path the Buddha pursued prior to enlightenment, and abandoned.
A very unusual and beautiful statue. Thanks for sharing. I wish I could help with the translation, but please update us if you find out more. ![]() Andrew |
