c33.s1.6

The pillars in the hall, as will be seen in the photograph (Plate CXXXI), are of a different type to those at Ittagi, Baṅkāpur, Tiḷivaḷḷi and others we have been considering. There is very little lathe work in these. Instead of the round bulbous section in the middle of the shaft, there is, here, a square block of the same dimensions, in plan, as the square pedestal below.
