		      Baphuon 
	style, found in 
	
	                Phimai 
	and dated around the 10th to 11th century AD. 
	It depicts a scene from the 
			      
			      Ramayana 
	in which   
	
	 
			Indrachit, 
	one of the demons, has shot the 
	
	      nagabaat at
	
	
	Rama 
	and tied him down. Rama is here portrayed lying 
	on the ground with the 
						
	      naga coiled around his body and surrounded by some 
	monkey-warriors of his army. However, the 
	
	Garuda, 
	i.e. the archenemy of the naga, accidentally flew by, here seen in the 
	centre, and the naga from fear will subsequently release Rama.
