From Yotkan, capital of the kingdom of Khotan, modern Xianjiang province 2nd-3rd century A.D. The oasis state of Khotan with its capital at Yotkan, south of the Taklamakan desert, was a prosperous and powerful kingdom. Excavations have yielded many terracotta figures and ceramics of a Hellenistic style adopted from Iran. There are virtually no similarities with artefacts from Central China.
