'Halebid (India) and Copan (Honduras)' - by K J S Chatrath

 

 

Photo on the top is from Halebid, India and the one below it is from Copan, in the thick jungles of Honduras in Central America.

The Indian statue is believed to have been made around 1150 AD and the Honduran statue dates to around 400-800 AD.
