I am not familiar with these particular reliefs. How do we know it is not a Christian temple? The style of art to my untrained eye in the hindu religion appears to be about 200 years old and to be originated in India. How did I do?

The other thing is they appear to be having fun with out any evil overtones. If Christianity depicted this type of scene it would have a very dark theme and would suggest itmwas demons molesting unbelievers more than likely.

But really how close was I. I Specialize in Christian history so this is out of my expertise.

Because the figures seem to be female? Lol.😂
I'm not sure -- the one in the back on the left may be male (although they have a wasp waist) and the one in the middle on the right may be male (although they're pretty effeminate looking).
Christian hierarchy and art usually revolves around a male protagonist.Bleh.😝
