This gold statuette does not have any attributes that would help to identify it as a particular god. It has four arms and hands, three of which resemble gestures that imply Witarkamudrā, suggesting teaching or engagement in discourse. The object is dressed with knee-length multi layered pants, and it's physiognomy and the shape of it's hands and fingers, point to similar pieces from Thailand.
