Detail of well preserved, profusely decorated section of the eastern edge of the northern façade. Viewed ascending from the lowest panel: a dado with lion figures; a smaller frieze with ganas; a multi-tiered mini-shrine with pilasters and arches; another frieze with lions; three smaller shrine-like structures, mostly destroyed, but with both geese and, at left, a dancing figure. In the highest level of the central edifice is a frieze with ganas and hamsa (sacred geese) under its ornamental dome. Other decorative sculpture on the shrine's façade is above those described here.
