Ancient Nepal Buddha Art Discovered

     Ancient  Nepal Buddha Art Discovered
    Paintings of Buddha dating back at least to the 12th century have been discovered in a cave in a remote area of Nepal's north-central region.

    Researchers made the find after being tipped off by a local sheep herder. They discovered a mural with 55 panels showing the story of Buddha's life.

    The mural was uncovered in March, with the team using ice axes to break through a snow path to reach the cave.

    The find was in the Mustang area, 250km (160 miles) northwest of Kathmandu.
