Solution

The outer lower side covering of the Kopeshwar Temple from Sabha Mandap, Antaral Kaksha, and Garbhagruha, which consists of a series of elephants, is called the "Elephant Frieze" or "Elephant Carvings". This is a common architectural feature in many Indian temples, where a row of carved elephants is used to decorate the lower part of the temple walls. The elephants are usually depicted in a walking pose, and they symbolize strength and stability.
