Summary

Description
English: Shorchuk warrior satuette, Tang Dynasty period, Central Asian military type, 6th-7th century.

Described by Rhie:
Fig. 5.47n Warrior, from the cella (Stein xi) of F4, main temple site, Shorchuk Ming-oi, Karashahr, painted stucco, H. 42.8 em, British Museum, London (after Whitfield (1982-1985),

III, color pl. 98). Page 556: The military uniformed figures in the adjacent panel are most relatable to sculptures and paintings from Shorchuk Mingo-oi (Figs. 5.47n; 5.78b) ranging from the late 5th to the 7th century. The warrior head from Shorchuk Ming-oi in Fig. 5.49c with its chubby face and subdued yet soft f ea tu res seems to relate with the heads of the warriors in this Tumshuk painting. This style does not appear to relate to the T'ang period 7th-9th century or later, where the military uniform and helmets, etc. are differently portrayed. in Rhie, Marylin M. (2002) Early Buddhist art of China and Central Asia, Leiden: Brill, p. 556, Fig. 5.47n ISBN: 978-90-04-11499-9.
