The Buddhas of Bamiyan once stood along the Silk Road , a network of trade routes that crisscrossed Eurasia from 130 B.C. to 1453 .
The twin statues were part of an area punctuated with Buddhist monasteries, chapels and sanctuaries.
Little is known about who carved the statues, with additional caves found years after the statues were destroyed.
