Subject:Can Anyone Read Mark On Buddha
Posted By: Gary Yeomans Tue, Dec 28, 2021 IP: 2a00:23c7:d20e:d601:

Can anyone read the mark on the back of this Buddha, I think it may be Tibetan Script but I'm not sure,, also what is the purpose of this figure? it has a cut shape around the base and holes in the back, my thoughts are it could be a censer lid? but the bottom shape is strange, it measures 11cm high and 7cm across.

Curiously the inscription is sanskrit!

It is written with Devanagari alphabet, and reads;
ने पा ल  Nepala Nepal in Nepali language

With regards,
