Above the lower level band with friezes depicting the Hindu fables and legends is a band of mythical "makaras" (a creature based on the fusion of various animals) and then a band of decorative peacocks. Above the peacock band of nearly 200 relief carvings are rows of secular life of the people and small size deity reliefs that wraps around only the "sabha mantapa" (community hall) part of the main temple. Most of these are defaced and damaged. Some are difficult to identify.
