{{citat|When I first saw them I found it difficult to believe that they were prehistoric; they seemed to completely upset all established ideas about early art, and culture. Modeling such as this was unknown in the ancient world up to the Hellenistic age of Greece, and I thought, therefore, that some mistake must surely have been made; that these figures had found their way into levels some 3000 years older than those to which they properly belonged&nbsp;.... Now, in these statuettes, it is just this anatomical truth which is so startling; that makes us wonder whether, in this all-important matter, Greek artistry could possibly have been anticipated by the sculptors of a far-off age on the banks of the Indus.<ref>{{cite book|title=India discovered|url=https://archive.org/details/indiadiscovered0000keay|page=[https://archive.org/details/indiadiscovered0000keay/page/172 172]|publisher=Collins|author=John Keay|year=1988}}</ref>}}
