    Felt very happy to go back to Dharmapuri, Tamil Nadu to a ninth century temple I have been researching for a while. It has a beautiful 48 m long Ramayana frieze. The priest described this as a feminist temple - dedicated to Parvati it is bigger than the neighbouring Shiva temple.

    Afghanistan's past will pave the way to its brighter future. Without history, there is no identity. This is one example of Afghanistan's cultural, religious and historical heritage. The heart of Asia.

    Prof. Marylin Rhie was such a prodigious scholar & kind teacher. I was fortunate for the opportunity to work with her while I was . She always seemed larger than life & much of my love for visual culture I owe to her. Condolences to her family + the many she touched

    Pronounced like “fortune” in Chinese, the bat has been one of the most revered, popular creatures in East Asia for over 1000 years. Here, red bats surrounding a dragon on a Qing emperor’s robe, blue bats on a Korean vase of Choson dynasty, a black bat in a Japanese ukiyo-e print.

    Tang (618-906) China marbleware. A stoneware made of two different colored clays (brown and cream) that would be laid in lines, then rolled over to create the wavy shapes and covered in clear or yellowish glaze. I think they're lovely.

    Wow. How amazing. Journeying through the Karakorum highway in northwest Pakistan, I came across such drawings which were similar in nature. That road is just a timeless manuscript waiting to be revealed.

    Sadly, googling either Argali sheep or Gobi ibex shows you a slew of images of these beautiful animals being trophy hunted. Foreign tourists hunt in the name of funding conservation, but they show no respect to mother nature as people living on this land did.

    Or maybe Gobi ibex. Their horns look more similar, but the ibex doesn't show marked stripes as the hieroglyph figures. Need a zoologist to solve the puzzle😀

    When I was a high schooler, it took me weeks to find this rock on top of a mountain near my hometown (NW China), carved with what I now believe to be Mongolia Argali sheep, a species already extinct in the area. The animals must have been worshipped by people thousands years ago.
