One of the reliefsis quite interesting is the one that is centered on the floor of the entrance to the first gate. This relief in in the form of a phallus image (male public) faced with a woman shaped like a triangle decorated with a kind of wreath. By scholars, the relief is considered a symbol of fertility. However, apart from being a symbol of fertility, this relief is actually also the beginning (base) of subsequent reliefs, especially those related to the Cuddhamala and Garudeya stories.
