Title:

Kollana. Back of temple. Photographer: Bhandarkar, D.R.

Scope & Content:

Genre: Architectural Photography

'Outside the village, near a rivulet, and perched upon a high mound, stands an old dilapidated temple facing the east. On the dedicatory block is an image of Siva, flanked by five of the Navagrahas on his right, and the remaining four and a female figure on his left side. The door-frame has, near the bottom, on each side, images of Siva and Parvati. The shrine contains a linga in an enclosed space, but is now in disuse; and round about the linga, are gathered together some fragments of sculptured stones apparently belonging to the doorway and walls of a temple. The porch has been destroyed, and cleared away except the basement. Touching the side walls of the antarala or vestibule of the sanctum are two pedestals without any statues thereon. The walls of the shrine, excepting on the north side, have suffered great damage. The sikhara or spire, except on the south side, is intact.' ('Progress Report of the Archaeological Survey of Western India for the year ending 30th June 1905', p. 47).
