Summary
editDescription0101621 Ancient Shiva Temple, Gond dynasty, Armori Maharashtra 021.jpg |
English: This triple sanctum Hindu temple is found in Armori town in far eastern Maharashtra, on the western bank of Ram Sagar Talab. It is attributed to Raja Hari Chandra Gond of the Gond people. He was one of the kings of a Hindu dynasty that built numerous Hindu temples before the 14th-century. These temples are found in far eastern Maharashtra, southeastern Madhya Pradesh, south Chhattisgarh and north Telangana. These temples along with Buddhist stupas in this region are important in the study of ancient India, and how isolated tribal groups emerged in the forests of central India after the 14th-century.
The Armori temple is a triple temple with a shared mandapa. Its central sanctum was dedicated to Shiva, the other two dedications are unclear but likely to Brahma and Vishnu based on the broken Hindu artwork found nearby. Many of these have been moved to the Nagpur museum. The notable artwork and mutilated statues found here include those of Shiva, Nandi, Vishnu, Durga, Ganesha and Kartikeya. The mandapa pillars have a pre-12th century style, similar to the historic Hindu temples found in south Chhattisgarh and northern Telangana. |
