c9.s1.11
The *śikhara* has lost its own finial and has been capped with an incongruous Muhammadan dome in brick and mortar, which is to be removed. The small shrines have also lost the whole or part of their finials. What the original was like may be seen, to some extent, in the photographs of the temples at Jhodgā and Ratanvāḍi. The masonry of the roof of the hall, shown in black in the section, is built hollow, and the main tower is also hollow above the shrine ceiling.
