| Description / विवरण | |
| Description / विवरण | It is a rectangular-shaped decorative block carved out of a granite boulder. This fragmented piece has decorative motifs on the frontal in three horizontal rows. The rear section is broken at an obtuse angle. The top row has dense zig-zag patterned carvings. The middle row consists of undulating spiral creepers forming almost the shape of a circle. The end row covers beaded arches shooting out from full bloom lotuses and within those arches one can find arrowhead-like motifs. The motifs of the first two rows are half-done. The designs of the last band are scarcely prominent. There are two square-shaped shallow depressions carvings found on the top of the block. The rows of designs cover the entire frontal area. |
