c9.s3.12

About fifty yards south of the last group is another smal Jaina temple No. 7, which is very plainly built. The shrine doorway, which is very simple in design, has a Jina upon the block but no work above the cornice. The pillars have plain square shafts with simply moulded bases and caps, and a few only remain. Beside this one, on the north, has been another Jaina shrine or *maṭha*, like Nos. 5 and 6, but nothing now stands except the doorway and a part of the adjacent wall. The whole appears to have had an enclosing wall of some extent around it.
