An important group of ancient temples is reported at Osia, a decayed town about 32 miles north of Jodhpur. Among them is a Jaina temple of considerable size, which an inscription indicates as having been founded originally in the latter part of the 8th century; and the Hindû temples may belong to somewhere about the same period. A careful survey of them might be helpful in settling the age of other monuments by supplying fresh links in the chronometric scale.
