Kartikeya Buff sandstone
The bust of a three-faced and six-armed Kartikeya wears a small crown, necklaces, armlets, circular ear ornaments and a yajnopavita. Some locks of hair dangle on his shoulders. The bust represents a youthful body with placid faces and a juvenile beauty. Three hair meshes (sikhandaka) arranged on top of the head can be seen through a small bejeweled crown. The figure shows late Gupta characteristics and thus it can be dated to c. 650 AD.
