in atmospheric conditions trying alike to eyes, throat, and lungs. Though Surveyor Rām Singh
and Turdi rendered, each in his own way, very intelligent assistance, I had myself to remain in
the trenches practically from sunrise until nightfall, feeling all the time permeated, as it were,
by the clouds of fine sand which the wind and the digging raised around us.
The photographs taken by me have proved more successful than I could reasonably hope
for under such adverse influences. The reproduction from among them of a series showing
practically the whole of the cleared wall-faces has appeared to me the best means of illustrating
the wealth of interesting materials which these excavations yielded for the study of the ancient
sculptural art of Khotan¹. To the views of the reliefs thus presented I propose here to add
such details of archaeological or artistic interest as were recorded by me on the spot, together
with any comments which the study of these reliefs as a whole and their comparison with the
sculptural remains brought to light at other Khotan sites has suggested to me. We may
conveniently commence this survey from the inner south-east wall where my excavations started,
and further on follow the numerical order in which the position of the individual sculptures has
been shown in the plan of Plate XL.
The first statue which the high sand rising towards the west corner permitted to be
cleared was that of the colossal standing Buddha, R. i. (see Figs. 61, 69). It was intact up to
the shoulders, except for the missing right hand; but as the weight of the extant upper
portion caused imminent risk of collapse I did not think it safe to remove entirely the
supporting sand layers to the left proper, and thus the left hand does not appear in the
photographs. There can be no doubt that it was shown hanging down and resting on
the edge of the drapery as seen in the statues, R. v, ix, x (Figs. 61, 62), which are exact
replicas of the same image. The right forearm supporting rich folds of drapery is shown in a
pose that unmistakably indicates the 'Abhayapāṇimudrā,' with which the Dandān-Uiliq and
Kighillik reliefs have already rendered us familiar. The same reappears at Rawak in the
numerous small Buddha figures filling the large aureoles of R. xii and R. xiii (see Figs. 63, 64).
It is likely to have been the pose also of the numerous over life-size figures of the inner
south-east face, all apparently replicas of one type, though only a few of them (R. xxxvi,
xxxviii–xli), have retained enough of the right forearm to show its characteristic position.
Among the colossal statues of the outer south-east face, most of those preserving the right
