±·²¹á¹­eÅ›²¹ (नटेश) is found as a sculpture at the temple of LokeÅ›vara, ³¾²¹á¹‡á¸²¹±è²¹ wall, north side, facing north.—A four-handed dancing Åšiva is placed in a niche on the top of which is a four-handed, seated image of Åšiva with two demigods decorating or eulogizing him. Once upon a time the dancing Åšiva must have been an exquisitely carved sculpture, but now it has suffered much in the hands of vandals and time. The image, from its remnants looks like that of dancing Åšiva. According to T. A. G. Rao “this kind of images are commonly known as ²ú³ó³ÜÂᲹṅg²¹³Ù°ùÄå²õ²¹â€�. But, here Åšiva holds in his right and left rear hands snake and trident respectively.
