This volume is dedicated to Prof. Dr. Monika Zin, an outstanding art historian of international standing in the field of early Buddhist art of South and Central Asia. In her numerous publications, she examines art objects and their iconography in connection with literary sources, cultural, religious, and historical backgrounds, as well as the transregional networks of the early Buddhist world concealed behind them. She thus opens up many new exciting perspectives and scholarly questions.
