Karerikuṭikā.—One of the four principal buildings of Jetavana, the others being Kosambakuṭi, Gandhakuṭi, and Salalaghara, each being erected at a cost of one hundred thousand. Karerikuṭikā was built by Anāthapiṇḍika and was raised on pillars. A maṇḍapa of Kareri (varuṇa) trees stood at the entrance to the kuṭikā, hence its name.¹ Here was preached the Mahāpadāna Sutta.² ¹ DA. ii. 407. The Bharhut bas-relief, however, makes of it a one-roomed cottage (Dial. ii. 4, n. 1). SnA. (ii. 403) has Candanamālā for Salalaghara. ² D. ii. 1 ff.
