Explanation:

The early phase, which, broadly speaking, coincided with the political supremacy of the Pallava dynasty (c. 650–893), is best represented by the important monuments at Mahābalipuram. Besides a fine group of small cave temples (early 7th century), among the earliest examples of their type in southern India, there are here several monolithic temples carved out of the rock, the largest of which is the massive three-storied Dharmarāja-ratha (c. 650). The finest temple at this site and of this period is an elegant complex of three shrines called the Shore Temple (c. 700), not cut out of rock but built of stone. The Tālapurīśvara temple at Panamalai is another excellent example. The capital city of Kānchipuram also possesses some fine temples—for example, the Kailāsanātha (dating a little later than the Shore Temple), with its stately superstructure and subsidiary shrines attached to the walls. The enclosure wall has a series of small shrines on all sides and a small gopura. Another splendid temple at Kānchipuram is the Vaikuṇtha Perumāl (mid-8th century), which has an interesting arrangement of three sanctums, one above the other, encased within the body of the superstructure
