Elephants

Here are a collection of various elephants from India.
The statues & buildings are in the ancient city of Hampi which was established between the 14th to the 16th centuries by the Vijayanagar Empire
- The early ones are statues of the god Ganesh
- You can also see the stables where the rulers housed their own elephants
. Some people have said that King Krishnadevaraya's personal army had over 900 elephants.
- Finally, a living elephant, waiting patiently to take part in an Indian wedding
. that was happening in the house over the road from where I was staying in Allahabad.
