Shyam Sunder Rajbanshi of the Epigraphy division (Department of Archaeology) read the inscription at the base of the life-sized statue with a good deal of excitement. After painstaking effort and much debate between experts, the literal translation was finally deciphered as, ‘ The year 107. Among the Kings, the Fourth, Late Sri Jayavarmma.'
Thus a chapter in the ancient history of Nepal was unveiled. The material used in the making of this antique statue- sankhu type sandstone (sandstone without polish), as well as the use of an early script proved that this statue was from the first Lichchavi samvat (Saka Samvat), which meant that it was made in the 2nd century A.D. This statue, discovered in Maligaon in 1994, was the earliest of any found with Lichchavi inscriptions on it.
Today this life sized statue of the famous king stands tall and proud in the room displaying stone sculptures at the National Museum in Chauni. The Museum is a treasure trove of numerous other antiques that collectors would give their eyeteeth for. Connoisseurs of such ancient objects d'art should also know that the Kathmandu Valley itself is a museum of sorts, and that antiques can be seen in many old houses, courtyards, temples and monasteries.
Of course, if the connoisseur wishes to possess a few of such exquisite curios then there are quite a few reputable antique shops strewn about Kathmandu, mainly in Thamel, Basantpur and Durbar Marg, besides of course numerous shops in Bhaktapur and Patan.
According to Mr. Binod Khanal of ‘Antique Gallery' in Durbar Marg, ‘Although there are many curio shops with a wide range of interesting items, I think there are probably ten to fifteen genuine antique shops in town.' His father, Mr.Bhola Khanal has been in the business for the last thirty years and they have participated in handicraft exhibitions in Germany (2002) as well as in Italy (2003).Binod once exhibited 65 masks of the Tharu region in an exhibition, ‘ Le comours des manque' (the commerce of masks), in Paris in September 2004.
