  chofa with elephant profile

 

Thailand

A chofa (fig.) possibly depicts a highly stylized garuda or hamsa, though sometimes another form is used, like this one on the Khun Mae Wannih Phakdi Modilai Edifice, which combines the head of an elephant, perhaps the representation of a nok hadsadie (fig.).
