The second image is from Jorhat (Assam, India) with a column built in 2000 that depicts local life and the freedom fighters. The third image is from Rome (Italy) with the two thousand years old pillar made for emperor Trajan showing his victory in a war.

Interesting! History has a lot of interesting stories to tell!
ReplyDeleteThanks Shreeja. When we did not have films or video, these story-pillars recorded the historical events, though probably they told biased hstories from the point of view of the winners. Anyway, they do have so much tell!
