Relief Sculpture in Khajur?ho, India - art. These relief sculptures on a sandstone temple in Khajur? ho, India, date from the 11th century. They depict hundreds of figures in a variety of poses. Some poses are sexual in nature, while others are believed to be symbolic and have yet to be deciphered by archaeologists. Several sculpture-adorned temples devoted to Hinduism and Jainism are found in Khajur? ho, which is located in north central India. Robert Holmes/Corbis
