v2.c13.s1.60

These combined and centrally planned temples would correspond to certain Jain temples on the one hand and to the Hoysala Temples of Mysore on the other, both of which date from c. 1100 A.D. onward. The V. Dh. appears to describe some of their ancestral plans; the height of the Jagaṭī, the existence of two Jagaṭīs, the shrines on either side of the steps, an approximation to the triple division of the height of the temple, all these belong to the temples of the Hoysalas.
