巴基斯坦西北邊境省羅里延唐蓋佛寺遺址出土
巴基斯坦開伯爾巴圖克瓦省羅里延唐蓋（Loriyan Tangai, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa）佛寺遺址出土，推測原為該佛塔上浮雕嵌板的殘件。該浮雕依據《方廣大莊嚴經》等經典表現佛傳故事中太子降生的場面。
畫面右側摩耶夫人為貴族婦女裝扮，頭巾、胸飾雕刻精緻，裝飾華麗，其右手上攀扶在藍毗尼園的無憂樹上，太子從夫人的右脇降生。剛降生的太子處於畫面的中心，帶圓形頭光，在旁的帝釋天雙手捧布承接。畫面下部又出現太子初生踏地時的形象，向東西南北四方各行七步，一手指天，一手指地。帝釋天後方帶頭光、綰髮髻者為梵天。其上方另一天人，手置於口中吹哨讚歎太子降誕之奇蹟。中央上方有一拂子，為古印度王室用器，象徵太子的尊貴身分，亦代表從天而降的吉祥之物。
