[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 10338877, member: 2844"]I'm sure it does, but it isn't one I am familiar with. The central figure doesn't look like a God to me. Rubbing with oils could be Ayurvedic, but it could also be preparing a king for his investiture. The different costumes could be a reference to Mysore's fame as a city of many religions. I think you'll have to delve into the local history of Mysore to find out what the scene is about.[/QUOTE]
