Gubyaukgyi Temple (Myinkaba)
The Gubyaukgyi (alt. Kubyauk-gyi) temple, located just south of Bagan, Myanmar, in Myinkaba Village, is a Buddhist temple built in 1113 AD by Prince Yazakumar, shortly after the death of his father, King Kyansittha of the Pagan Dynasty.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gubyaukgyi Temple (Myinkaba) )〕 The temple is notable for two reasons. First, it contains a large array of well-preserved frescoes on its interior walls, the oldest original paintings to be found in Bagan.〔 All of the frescoes are accompanied by ink captions written in Old Mon, providing one of the earliest examples of the language's use in Myanmar.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gubyaukgyi Temple (Myinkaba) )〕 Second, the temple is located just to the west of the Myazedi pagoda, at which was found two stone pillars with inscriptions written in four, ancient Southeast Asian languages: Pali, Old Mon, Old Burmese, and Pyu. The inscription on the pillar displayed by the Myazedi pagoda has been called the Burmese Rosetta Stone,〔 given its significance both historically and linguistically, as a key to cracking the Pyu language.〔
==Physical Description==
The style of the temple includes both Mon〔 and Indian〔 elements. In the case of the latter, the temple's towers are built in the Indian Shikhara style.〔 The temple has a square base, shaped like a Kalatha pot, with a curvilinear roof. The interior of the temple contains a large, perimeter vestibule that connects to a small shrine room, a temple entrance leading to the vestibule, and an interior hallway leading to the shrine room.〔 Both the shrine room and the entrance to the temple are on the east side of the building.〔
The temple has 11 large, perforated, Pyu-style windows, which let in very little light.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.lonelyplanet.com/myanmar-burma/myinkaba/sights/religious/gubyaukgyi )〕 Nine of the windows are in the outer walls, and two are interior windows. The windows' perforations are shaped in a variety of ways, including as Banyan leaves and swastikas.〔
In the interior above these windows are terraces with small Buddha figures, backed by intricate, ornamental stucco carvings with floral designs. Other stucco designs that can be seen in Gubyaukgyi include concentric rings and ogre figurines. There are also, in the walls, 34 recesses, each of which used to contain a statue of Buddha. Due to vandalism, however, only 19 of these statues remain.〔
