Before any statues were made |

| If you were following someone across
unknown ground you would look for footprints as a sign
that they had been there. A single footprint, or a pair of prints, represents the presence of Buddha. |
|
Usually these prints have a wheel on the
sole, but sometimes other symbols. Footprints can often be seen before an empty throne, or with other symbols, representing various events in the life of Gotama. |
