Ritual mask of Lersi Po Gae Ta Fai, the shivaite teacher of Buddha Gautama and a bucha (statue) of Phra Jao Saming Prai, the Tiger headed Shaman. Important Spirits of the Ajarn or Shaman of Thailand, improperly called sorceror (western audience love that word, so many things are improperly named that way for pure marketing purposes and limited understanding). A very old declination of Shivaism developed in ancient Siam still flourishing today.
