I was very
impressed of the good quality of the illustrations on the walls
within this templeare, and I present you some of the ones I
liked. You can see the two different way they made these, the
first by putting "clay" on the finished wall, and press
the illustrations into this before it dryed. The second way is to
carve the illustration out of the wall to make it stick out of
the back like a relief. This way to make illustrations are much
more difficult, and take much more time to make. And, remember,
all these were made around 2200 - 2500 years ago.
