Matt Griffin - Buddha Head

The Buddha head was a symbol of the Chinese culture, it represented a fallen China warrior and or hero. The Buddha head was a head of a samurai, which was the Chinese warrior at the time. This was very common to be created in A.D 70, it was created in china by the Tang Dynasty. The Buddha head was also created by sand stone, the first Buddha head was of a China warrior, made in China. This was one type of way to remember a fallen loved one, sometimes the man in the sculpture would be a replica of the person who died. I think this is a good way to remember people if they have been killed in battle, it seems that Chinese people still keep this tradition going but other types of people refrain from doing that. Buddha was someone to be worshipped to by the China people in those days and also today. The Buddha represents as some sort of god to the Chinese culture, people worship the Buddha. This is not used as some sort of decoration but might be found in someone's home who worships the Chinese culture, today and in the past
