These pages are a companion to a timeline I created to explain the origin of Iconism in Indic tradition. The timeline itself was created partially in response to a question on quora: Why do Hindu gods have many heads and arms. I am planning to write a series of articles on idolatry and iconism in general, and pages in this series will also feature in that continuity.
