This pair is identified by Zimmer, Vol 2 Plate 129, as "Kama and Rati." However, the identification is not certain. Usually Kama, the god of love, rides a parrot, but the small companion in this sculpture is a horse-headed dwarf. The presence of iconographically specific
ganas, together with the vegetal settings behind the couples, makes it seem to me that the bracket couples in Cave 3 should represent Yakshas instead.
