- Title:
- Alagar kovil Kallalagar Outer Mandapa Wall East [17th Century]
- Scope & Content:
- After the killing of Ravana the story again continued in the east wall of the outer mandapa. It narrates the episodes of Rama’s return to Ayothya along with Sita and Lakshmana. At Ayothya they were well received and blessed by the elders and public. The final depiction is that of Rama’s coronation. But it is very much eroded.
