We just learned about the Ajanta Caves.
Another famous Indian sculpture is the Chola Nataraja.
From around 400 years in India around 800 AD there were kings and rulers known as the Cholas.
These people really tried to improve the buildings and artwork of their country, and build things that would last for a thousand years.
There are many famous bronze statues that were made during this time.
One of the most famous is the Nataraja.
One of the hindu deities is named Shiva, and sometimes they call him Nataraja which means lord of the dance.
