\[33\] Originally, nothing further was needed to complete a temple, but in course of time two other buildings were added in a line with the porch. The first was called the \*nāṭmandir\* or "the dancing hall," Sanskrit : \*maṇḍapa\*,¹³ and in front of it, (2nd), the \*bhogamandir\* or "refectory" ; and all large establishments now include this four-fold arrangement.
