4. Depiction of a Ganesha icon

Descrizione:: Seen here is another face of the sarvatobhadra (open from all sides), which features a depiction of a Ganesha icon. The four-handed image is depicted in a sitting posture, although the specific attributes of the icon are difficult to identify. The niche containing the Ganesha icon is topped by a pyramidal shikhara (superstructure). The Ganesha icon is characterized by long elongated ears, and the trunk curls up to rest on a bijapuraka (citron fruit).

5. Inscriptions on the Hero Stone

Descrizione:: The hero stone slabs feature depictions of human figures in the upper half, while the lower half shows faint traces of inscriptions. Though illegible, closer examination suggests the inscription were likely written in the Devnagari script. The content of the inscription remains unknown, but typically inscriptions on hero stones detail of the deceased and the time of the craving. Palaeographically, the script can tentatively be placed within a broad timeframe from 12th to 15th centuries CE. However, due to the deteriorated condition of the stone slabs, no definitive conclusions can be drawn.

6. Two female figures standing with hands in Namaskar mudra

Descrizione:: In the second small panel in the hero stone, positioned just below the row depicting the hero, stand two female figures with folded hands in namaskar mudra (salutation gesture). Their upright posture is emphasized by their drapery consisting of a decorated lower garment. The female figures represent celestial damsels believed to have arrived to escort the hero to heaven.

7. An unidentified fragment in the row of hero stones

Descrizione:: This is an unidentified fragment in the row of hero stones that are kept in the premises of Suswani Mata Temple.

8. View of the Shikhara of the Sarvatobhadra

Descrizione:: A closer view of the shikhara (superstructure) of the sarvatobhadra (open from all sides) reveals it's stylized like a phamsana (pyramidal) shikhara. It consists of three mouldings that decrease in size, with a gavaksha (false window) on the frontal side of these mouldings. The mouldings are capped by a disc at the centre. The shikhara gives the sarvatobhadra the appearance of a miniature shrine.

9. Faint traces of a human figure visible on the stone fragment

Descrizione:: Seen here what appears to be a sculptural fragment among the row of hero stones. This speculation is drawn from faint traces of a human figure visible on the stone fragment. Given that the collection includes not only hero stones but also other pieces, it is plausible that a broken sculpture is venerated as a hero stone. Unlike other Hero stones, this fragment has a low pedestal.
