Stone-Chariot : Now & Then

The terracotta made superstructure of the Stone Chariot has crashed or was pulled down for some mysterious reasons, probably to save the rest form collapsing. Most likely this happened during the colonial period when the conservation efforts were made under the Madras Presidency. The old photographs taken by Greenlaw, Lyton etc give a good idea of the changes that happened to these structures on a century.
