Bronze figure of a tirthankara, from Deccan, India, 11-12th. The followers of Jainism believe in 24 tirthankaras, the last of whom was Mahavira (about 540-468 BCE), a contemporary of Buddha. Tirthankara means "fordmaker" because they help their followers to cross over from suffering and pain to happiness and perfect knowledge. OA 1882.10-10.26
