Ideas transformed into definite forms also serve as valuable documents of a society. The aim of this study is to understand the form and style of terracotta art related to various cultures. The remains mentioned in this study were found during the course of excavation in Nepal, and the results highlight the origin, typology, and stylistic evolution of the principle forms, the techniques used and their context. Such an attempt has not been made before this. Some articles have described the forms, but there has not been a critical analysis. In the Nepalese society art remains have been recovered from the third century BC to modern periods. Among various mediums, clay has been used since the primitive stage of society. A lot of human and animal figurines, beads, bangles, seals and sealing, counters, tokens, dabbers, flesh rubbers, and pottery have been discovered at Tilaurakot, Lumbini, Bañjarähi, Gotihawa, Pipri, Sisahania, Babhanīkot, Araurākot, Hädigoan, Lazimapät, Bhediyārī, and Mustang.
