TABLE (?) for ID

Thank you for your swift response Ibrahiim.

Yes, your pics show pretty much what I've been seeing:- where that little rounded projection appears on these tables it seems to be invariably a shallow bowl, I have yet to see one that is flat, let alone adorned with carving.

I guess since one end of the panel is missing we'll never know exactly what might have been.

In respect of the projection, yes, I agree stylistically Hindu, but the motif within the projection? That is what interests me. Probably a bit much to expect non-specialist people to be able to comment on it.

Thank you very much for trying.
