In the central region of the above square, another square *EFGH* of 16 bricks is formed. As D. explains, it is constructed out of the central square of 25 bricks by putting 4 poles, one each at the centre of the corner bricks, at *E*, *F*, *G* and *H*, and then joining them. The square *EFGH* forms the nave (*nābhi*).
