Mediaeval Temples of the Dakhan c8.s2.9

c8.s2.9

The building beside this one on the south, in the other enclosure, which is now in ruins, seems to have belonged to the larger temple. Its axis, passing through the entrance doorway and the doorway of its enclosure, passes through the centre of the shrine of the large temple; and it faces the large temple. Its interior is much like the interior of the hall on the south side of the enclosure of the temple of Gondeśvara at Sinnar. It has no shrine, the interior being a long plain hall. It was probably a maṭha or resthouse attached to the large temple. Over its entrance doorway, as already mentioned, is a much worn and damaged inscription, just as occurs over the door of the maṭha at Balsāne.
