The Toluvila statue is a seated image of the Buddha discovered in 1900 in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka, that dates back to the 4th or 5th century.

[3] It is carved out of a single block of granite, and bears a close resemblance to the Samadhi statue, although slightly smaller.

Another unusual feature is three lines that have been carved into the front of the neck that are believed to have been influenced by the Mathura School of India.

[1][5] It was found in 1900 during archaeological excavations conducted in the village of Toluvila in Anuradhapura by archaeologist Harry Charles Purvis Bell.

The museum identifies it as the "most significant" sculpture of ancient Sri Lanka that it possesses,[3] and it is displayed directly in front of the main entrance to the building.
