v1.c6.s13.116

“It will be seen that the Rāmāyaṇa mentions temples and idolatry; but these seem to be of old date in India, though not so very prevalent as at present. Stenzler’s Gautama Sūtra (9, 66) prescribes the going round of Dēvāyatana; griha-dēvatās or household gods are mentioned (in 5, 13).”
