Our Egyptian statues and reliefs are cast in marble and cast stone, and feature ancient Egyptian gods, goddesses, pharaohs and queens.

The son of the king and queen of the Sakyas, Suddhodana and Maya, Siddharta rejected the comfortable life at court for a life of ascet- icism and introspection. At the age of 29, while meditating beneath a fig tree, Siddharta achieved illumination (Bodhi). For the next 44 years, Siddharta (now known as Buddha or "enlightened one") taught what would become one of the world's great religions.
