v1.c8.s4.38

⁶⁵ In ch. XLIX, the ‘Samarāṅgaṇasūtradhāra’ exclusively treats of stone or brick built Prāsādas without Śikharas. They are covered by a Chādya or a double and triple roof. Chād, even to-day in Bengal denotes the flat roof of a brick structure. These Prāsādas were not dolmen temples; their interiors were rich in pillars (see Part VII).
