Summary
[edit]Description11th century Trikuteshvara temple, Gadag, Karnataka India - 4.jpg |
English: The Trikuteshvara – also spelled Trikutesvara or Trikuteshwara temple – is one of the several profusely and intricately carved historic Hindu and Jain temples in Gadag region of Karnataka,. It is close to National Highway 67, between Goa and Hampi (200 kilometers east of Goa and 100 kilometers west of Hampi).
This temple complex attracted much admiration from colonial era archaeologists and scholars. James Fergusson considered it the most complete illustration of the Chalukya architecture, while Jas Burgess admired the exquisite details and finish of the 11th and 12th century Hindu artwork here.
Gadag is a small town in Karnataka (sometimes called Gadag-Betageri, by the twin town designation). Between the 9th and 12th-century, it was the location of a growing, large city with numerous Hindu and Jain temples. Many inscriptions and literary references mention Gadag with alternate names: Gadugu, Galadugu, Kratuka, Kratapura and Kardugu. Several major dynasties helped build a galaxy of Hindu and Jain temples in and around Gadag region. These include the Rashtrakuta, Western Chalukya, Kalachuris, Yadavas and Hoysalas. The historic Gadag city reduced and dissolved into history as the region came under intense Sultanate era raids, wars and related destruction, and political turmoil. Gadag region was mostly a forgotten rural area specked with dozens of abandoned ruins in the 1880s when Henry Cousens visited it. The Gadag region is growing again. The co-located Saraswati temple and this temple complex are one of the national monuments of India, protected and managed by ASI Dharwad circle, as N-KA-D234. |
