(THEBLAZE) — A nearly 1,000-year-old statue of Buddha is getting attention, not because of its artistic detail but because of what was found on the inside.
Inside the statue are the mummified remains of Buddhist master Liuquan, a news release about the discovery stated.
Experts at Meander Medical Center in the Netherlands took CT scans and samples from the statue in September 2014, but news of it is just starting to make its rounds around the Web now.
