介绍（中）	这是一个无法辨认的神的高浮雕头像，展现了一张宽阔多肉的脸，眉毛和嘴巴深深地刻着。波浪状的头发被绘制在王冠或头带下，头带的中心装饰着双重背景，可能是为了暗示宝石。珠宝头带的顶部是另一个三角形部分，椭圆形设置更大。这个比例表明，这个头像属于一个接近真人大小的男性神石碑。没有任何特征可以被识别，但这种风格可能与喜马偕尔邦康格拉区马斯鲁尔的岩石切割整体印度教寺庙遗址有关。这座供奉湿婆神的寺庙大约在8至9世纪被分配使用。尽管经过风化和磨损，左前额和眼睛有重大损失，但这座雕塑可能被认为是类似的年代。面部的全圆形特征和自然处理与网站上发布的雕塑片段保持一致。
介绍（英）	This high relief head of an unidentifiable deity displays a broad fleshy face with deeply incised eyebrows and mouth. The waves of hair are drawn up beneath a diadem or headband decorated with a double setting at the center, possibly intended to suggest gemstones. The jeweled headband is surmounted by another triangular section with a larger elliptical setting. The scale suggests that this head belonged to near life-size stele of a male deity. No attributes survive which would allow an identification, but the style may be linked to the rock-cut monolithic Hindu temple site of Masrur, in Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh. This temple, dedicated to Shiva, has been assigned to around the 8th–9th century. Although weathered and abraded, with significant loss to the left forehead and eye, this sculpture may be accepted as being of a similar date. The full rounded features and naturalistic treatment of the face is in keeping with sculptural fragments published from the site.
