Mediaeval Temples of the Dakhan c13.s4.4

c13.s4.4

Out in front of the temple, at a short distance from the main entrance, is the basement of a pavilion, but the upper portion of it was never built. When the later brickwork was added to the main building, a square mas was built here with a niche on each of its four sides. In that facing the temple was placed a rough image of Garuḍa, the vāhana of Vishnu. One or two small pillars stand in the courtyard, which were, perhaps, intended for this pavilion or the temple porches.
