Ganesha, the elephant-headed Hindu god, is revered as the remover of obstacles and the patron of intellect, wisdom, and learning. His name combines "Lord of the People" and "Lord of the Ganas." Ganesha is depicted with an elephant head, a potbelly, and a broken tusk. He is often portrayed riding a large bandicoot rat.
