Scope note
Refers generally to the later ancient culture of the Andhran region and Andhran tribes, particularly to Buddhist art forms of the 3rd century CE. Flowing sculptural volume and life-like illusion are both hallmarks of later Andhran art. With the decline of Andhra power in the Deccan, Brahmanism again dominated the south. The term can also be used to refer to culture from the Andhran region of later centuries that is not necessarily related to the patronage of Andhran tribes or dynasties.
