Only on the elephant of Thakkura Jagadeva there was no palakhi but trappings alone on which sat Jagadeva without an attendant. This is possibly due to the fact that he was not a minister or a maha-mantrin. Below the trunk of his elephant is shown a small figure of a horse-rider now partly mutilated. The elephants are arranged as follows: Entering the Hasti-shālā, the first three elephants in the row to your right, the first on the left-side row and the first behind the samavasaraṇa noted above-these seven were installed by minister Pṛthvīpāla in V. S. 1204; the second elephant behind the samavasaraṇa and the last elephants in the right and left rows were the gifts of minister Dhanapala, son of Pṛthvipala, installed in V. S. 1277.
