    You might want to check the small museum at the Srisailam gate it has a few panels from the 8th century Chalukya period that show how the iconography evolved before the Vijayanagara additions. After that, a quick walk to the watchtowers in Kurnool will let you see the fortifications that once guarded the route. Do you know if the temple office can point you to a guide who explains those Chalukya panels?
