Two Ladies and the Dwarpal

Two Ladies and the Dwarpal ( the guard)

10th -11th Century AD, Kota Museum

                Notice the two ladies are wearing wrap-arounds (lungi like garments). This is similar to the national  dress for women in South-East Asian countries. There it is called "the Sarong". Indian art  and culture has strongly  influnced the South-East  Asian countries. That is why they are called Indo-Chinese countries. Once we too influenced  the global fashion.
