Dear Prexy ,
Do not worry your pretty head, much over the typo
She is pretty to qualify as a live, loving example too
As you mentioned a clever idea and a good match
King Kashypa’s taste on women I too like very much

Thanks for posting Sam. Fifteen centuries apart look alike. May be carrying the same genes from the royal household!. Beautiful photoshopping. Thanks again Sam. Just loved it.

Thanks Sam.The story of the Sigiriya maidens unfolds many possibilities.Historians and Archaeologists often differ in their interpretations.The contemporary view dates it around the mid 6th century AC.Questions abound.Why were clouds included in the paintings?The close association of the local religious sects with the Mahayana scholar Nagarjuna during the 6/7 th century AC.Then ,Could it be Tara? and why in “Sihi-Giri”(remembrance rock).It may have nothing to do with Kasyappa.!!Eddie.
