Summary

Description
English: A fragmented Buddha statue was displayed at the yard of Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II Museum in Palembang, then moved to Taman Purbakala Kerajaan Sriwijaya. The statue was discovered in Seguntang Hill archaeological site in Palembang back in the 1920s. It was discovered in pieces; the head part was discovered first, several months later the body parts were discovered, the legs are still missing. The 277cm-tall statue is made from granite stone, commonly thought to be from the neighboring island of Bangka, although an unfinished seated Buddha statue in granite currently found in the Palembang Museum proves that such statues could have been made locally. The statue likely belongs to the Pala period, dating from the late 7th to the early 8th centuries CE. This style was copied during Srivijaya era of the same period.
Bahasa Indonesia: Arca Buddha bergaya Pala dipamerkan di halaman Museum Sultan Mahmud Badaruddin II, Palembang kemudian dipindah ke Taman Purbakala Kerajaan Sriwijaya. Arca ini ditemukan di situs Bukit Seguntang, Palembang, pada tahun 1920-an, dan ditemukan dalam beberapa pecahan. Bagian yang pertama kali ditemukan adalah bagian kepalanya, beberapa bulan kemudian bagian tubuhnya ditemukan, hanya bagian kakinya yang kini masih hilang. Arca setinggi 277 cm ini dibuat dari batu granit. Arca ini mengikuti langgam Pala yang berkembang di India Utara abad VII sampai VIII masehi. Selama ini, langgam Pala sampai Kerajaan Sriwijaya melalui hubungan dagang dan keagamaan dengan India.
