c9.s3.15

No. 10 is about twenty to thirty yards to the north of the last, under a large banyan tree. It is the wreck of a small Jaina temple. Over the shrine doorway is a Jina, while sitting in the midst of this desolation, presiding over the ruins, is a much weatherworn life-sized Jina, sitting now in the open air, the shrine walls having fallen. The temple faces the east. Behind this shrine is a high rocky mound, having upon it some small memorial stones, set up in a line facing west, and daubed with red paint.
