Mediaeval Temples of the Dakhan c10.s1.7

c10.s1.7

The principal object of worship in the shrine, at present, is the *liṅga*; but, behind it, resting against the wall, is a slab bearing an image of Vishnu reclining upon Śesha, which is set up on end. The beams which stand forward from the four walls of the shrine are supported upon intervening brackets or consoles, in addition to the walls and corner pilasters. The shrine floor is on the same level as the floor of the hall. The doorway is fairly well carved, and is of the usual style, with a little florid centre piece under the cornice, as at Pedgāon. Five *devīs* occupy as many small niches in a line above the door cornice.
