Abstract: This paper discusses the intricacies of the relations between South and Southeast Asian religious imagery using the example of the long-known stone lintel from Vat Eng Khna as a focus point. By carefully relating the scenes of the lintel to comparable objects from South Asia, it demonstrates the necessity of challenging established concepts of the flow of ideas and visual concepts between both regions.
