Mediaeval Temples of the Dakhan c9.s1.10

c9.s1.10

It is difficult now to say, with absolute certainty, to what deities the four surrounding shrines were dedicated, but, judging from the sculptures which remain upon them, the nort-west one was assigned to Pārvatī, the south-west to Gaṇapati, the north-east to Sūrya, and the south-east to Viṣṇu. Among the smaller images, around the Nandi pavilion, are two of the *avatāras* of Viṣṇu, namely, Varāha and Narasimha.
