A deep pit, 3·52 m sq and 7·16 m deep, lined with rubbed bricks with obliquely decreasing sides, and a paved floor, 86 cm sq, at the bottom, has been encountered in the excavation. Although the excavators claim a Gupta date for the temple, Saraswati, 1976, on the basis of the plan, architecture and developed form of the plinth mouldings, would ascribe it to the Pāla period. - [Previous: v2.c30.126](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c30.126) - [Next: v2.c30.128](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c30.128) - [Up: v2.c30](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c30) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c30.127](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v2.c30.127) · Pramāṇa
