Eight images of 罢墨谤迟丑补峁卥补谤补 笔腻谤艣惫补苍腻迟丑补 of this variety are documented from the present study area (three from Purulia, four from Bankura and one from Burdwan).

The site Pakbirra possesses a 笔补帽肠补-迟墨谤迟丑颈办补 type of 笔腻谤艣惫补苍腻迟丑补 image (Pl.XXX.D) which is measures 64.5 x 33 cm (Bhattacharyya, Mitra and Bhowmick 1986: 147-8). In this image the 尘奴濒补-苍腻测补办补 stands in 办腻测辞迟蝉补谤驳补 on a doublepettaled lotus under the usual canopy of a seven-hooded serpent. He is accompanied on either side by gracefully adorned stout-looking 肠补奴谤颈-bearers. A 苍腻驳补 couple with their tails entwined, the male with arms folded in 苍补尘补蝉办腻谤补-尘耻诲谤腻 and the female holding a musical instrument, is shown beside the attendants of the Jina. On the edge of the back slab are carved four images of 罢墨谤迟丑补峁卥补谤补s in 办腻测辞迟蝉补谤驳补 two in each side of the 尘奴濒补-苍腻测补办补 with their respective 濒腻帽肠丑补苍补蝉 depicted on a slightly raised pedestal below them. The upper part of the stele contains the usual 惫颈诲测腻诲丑补谤补 couple, the 辫谤腻迟颈丑腻谤测补蝉 of heavenly hands playing on musical instruments and a projected three-tiered chatra surmounting the snake hoods. A lightly incised flower and a twig of a tree can be seen just beside the snake-hood. The simple tri-ratha pedestal reveals crouching lions and figures of 耻辫腻蝉补办补蝉.

A 笔补帽肠补-迟墨谤迟丑颈办补 type 笔腻谤艣惫补苍腻迟丑补 image, measures 75 cm x 34 cm x 10 cm. is now kept in the modern temple of Ani Jambad, (Pl.XXX.E) Purulia. The 尘奴濒补苍腻测补办补 stands in 办腻测辞迟蝉补谤驳补 on a double-pettaled lotus under the usual canopy of a seven-hooded serpent. He wears curly hair with 耻峁ａ箛墨峁�a and is accompanied on either side by gracefully adorned 肠补奴谤颈-bearers. A N膩ga couple with their tails entwined, the male with arms folded in 苍补尘补蝉办腻谤补-尘耻诲谤腻 and the female holding a musical instrument, is shown beside the attendants of the Jina. On the back-slab are carved four images of 罢墨谤迟丑补峁卥补谤补s in 办腻测辞迟蝉补谤驳补 two in each side of the 尘奴濒补-苍腻测补办补 with their respective 濒腻帽肠丑补苍补蝉 depicted on a slightly raised pedestal below them. From their cognizances these 罢墨谤迟丑补峁卥补谤补s can be identified as 痴腻蝉耻辫奴箩测补 and Padmaprabha to the right of the 尘奴濒补-苍腻测补办补, and 狈别尘颈苍腻迟丑补 and 惭补丑腻惫墨谤补 to his left. The upper part of the stele contains the usual 惫颈诲测腻诲丑补谤补 couple, the 辫谤腻迟颈丑腻谤测补蝉 of heavenly hands playing on musical instruments and a projected three-tiered chatra surmounting the snake hoods. The face and the torso of the Jina are slightly abraded. The tri-ratha pedestal reveals crouching lions, a female devotee, and naivedya offerings.

The 笔腻谤艣惫补苍腻迟丑补 icon (31 x 18 x 3 cm) from Herbona is depicted as standing in 办腻测辞迟蝉补谤驳补 posture on a lotus-seat under the canopy of a seven-hooded serpent. A 苍腻驳补-couple with their hands folded and inter-coiled tails springs from both sides of the attendants. The edge of the stela is carved with four 罢墨谤迟丑补峁卥补谤补s in 办腻测辞迟蝉补谤驳补 postures, arranged in pairs on each side of the Jina. On either side of the 尘奴濒补-苍腻测补办补 stand sensitively modelled 肠腻尘补谤补诲丑补谤补蝉 with their left hands in 办补峁瓂腻惫补濒补尘产颈迟补 posture and the right hands holding a fly-whisk. The centre of the pedestal has a 尘补峁単补濒补-办补濒补蝉补 and two crouching lions facing in opposite directions occupy the facets/projections adjacent to the centre. The remaining projections of the pedestal are left blank.

Three images of 笔腻谤艣惫补苍腻迟丑补 of this type have been found from Satpatta, Bankura (Chattopadhyay 2010: 200). The Jain images are presently plaqued on the right side wall of the modern temple of this village. The largest one measures 100 x 50 cm and is made of black basalt (Pl.XXX.F). In this sculptural specimen, 笔腻谤艣惫补苍腻迟丑补, the 尘奴濒补-苍腻测补办补, stands in 办腻测辞迟蝉补谤驳补 posture on a double-petalled lotus-pedestal under a canopy of seven snake hoods. The Jina is flanked on both sides by snake coils. The outline of the snake-hood reminds one of an umbrella and this variety of snake-hood has also been depicted in the 笔腻谤艣惫补苍腻迟丑补 icon of Harmasra. In contrast, the snake-hood canopy of P膩艣van膩tha images found from the Vishnupur region, has a towering character. The pedestal of the present image is tri-ratha and a 苍腻驳补 couple with their inter-coiled tails springs gracefully almost rhythmically from the centre projection of the pedestal just below the feet of the Jina. This inter-coiled 苍腻驳补 motif has been repeatedly depicted in the majority of the 笔腻谤艣惫补苍腻迟丑补 images found from various sites in eastern India (like eastern Orissa, the Chhotanagpur plateau and parts of Purulia). The 苍腻驳补 holds a water-vessel while the 苍腻驳颈 holds some indistinct implements. The centre of the pedestal has a 尘补峁単补濒补-kalasa and two crouching lions facing in opposite direction occupy the facets/projections adjacent to the centre. The remaining projections of the pedestal are left blank. The Jina is attended by two male 肠补耻谤墨-bearers wearing succinct lower garments and different ornaments like necklaces, 办别测奴谤补, 办耻峁囜笉补濒补, and a conical 箩补迟腻 like crown. They stand in 腻产丑补峁単补 posture on pedestals and their left hands are in 办补峁瓂腻惫补濒补尘产颈迟补 posture while the right hands hold fly-whisks. The Jina鈥檚 face is more or less damaged. On the edge of the back-slab are carved four images of 罢墨谤迟丑补峁卥补谤补 in 办腻测辞迟蝉补谤驳补 posture with their respective 濒腻帽肠丑补苍补蝉 depicted on a slightly raised pedestal below them. The upper part of the stele contains the usual 惫颈诲测腻诲丑补谤补, the 辫谤腻迟颈丑腻谤测补蝉 of heavenly hands playing on musical instruments, and a projected tiered chatra surmounting the snake-hood.

The remaining two 笔腻谤艣惫补苍腻迟丑补 images made of chlorite stone and measuring 45 x 25 cm, 70 x 35 cm have been plaqued side by side on the right wall of the modern temple mentioned earlier. In each case, the depictions and other iconographic details are the same. The Jain stands in 办腻测辞迟蝉补谤驳补 posture on a lotus-seat under the canopy of a seven-hooded serpent. A 苍腻驳补-couple with their hands folded and intercoiled tails springs from both sides of the attendants. The edge of the stele is carved with four 罢墨谤迟丑补峁卥补谤补s in 办腻测辞迟蝉补谤驳补 postures, arranged in pairs on each side of the Jina. The style of execution in each case is also the same. However, the smaller specimen of 45 x 25 cm exhibits a finer craftsmanship than its bigger counterpart. Stylistically, these three are assignable to c. twelfth century CE.

A badly weathered image of 笔腻谤艣惫补苍腻迟丑补 is lying (Pl.XXXI.A) on the slope of the hill of Paresnath (Chattopadhyay 2010: 199). It is made of chlorite stone and measures 116 x 57 cm. The top of the back-slab is broken. Iconographically this image is very much similar with the earlier images of this group. Both the side of the 尘奴濒补-苍腻测补办补 four figure of miniature Jinas in 办腻测辞迟蝉补谤驳补 posture are depicted (two on the each side). Their respective 濒腻帽肠丑补苍补 is carved on the small pedestal placed below them, but due to the abrasion none of these are recognizable.

A broken image of 笔腻谤艣惫补苍腻迟丑补 is worshipped in the modern temple of Kundo, Burdwan. The image exhibits the upper portion of the Jina and measures 40 x 32 x 8 cm. A seven hooded snake canopy protect the 尘奴濒补-苍腻测补办补 and above this a projected tiered chatra is visible, which is flanked by 惫颈诲测腻诲丑补谤补s holding long flowering garlands. Among the four miniature 罢墨谤迟丑补峁卥补谤补s only two are survived and depicted in the back-slab of both the sides of the 尘奴濒补-苍腻测补办补.
