The first sculptures in India date back to the Indus Valley civilization (3300–1700 B.C.), which are among the earliest instances of sculpture worldwide. During the 2nd to 1st century B.C. in far northern India, which is now southern Afghanistan and northern Pakistan, sculptures became more anatomically correct and centered on the worship of Buddha. Although Siddhartha Gotama, Buddha, lived in the 6th century BC, it was not until the 1st century AD that his likeness regularly appeared in statuary, with the finest known examples of Buddhist sculpture being produced in the Gupta period from the 4th to the 6th century AD.
