Summary
[edit]Description12th century Trikuteshwara temple and ruins Pillalamari, Suryapet Telangana India - 16.jpg |
English: Also known as Parvati Mahadeva Nameshwara temple, this is a Saivite Hindu temple located in Pillalamarri village of Suryapet district of Telangana, India.
It is a double temple, with the Nameshwara temple (Alayam) aligned in parallel to it on the immediate south. Trikuteshwara Temple is one among the four prominent and intricately carved stone and granite temples located in Pillalamarri village—the other three being Erakeswara Temple (Shiva), Nameshwara temple (Shiva) and Chennakeshava temple (Vishnu). The temple is on a square plan with four entrances and associated ardhamandapas. The main mandapa has a granite Nandi, intricately carved and decorated with jewelry. The pillars are simpler, and are not as carved as the other temples in this village. The spire is missing (with signs of being pulled down), yet the architecture of the temple as it remains is remarkable. This and other temples in Pillalamari were badly damaged after 14th-century, during the wars between Hindu kingdoms and Islamic Sultanates. This temple's stone statues such as of Ganesha and others show significant violence and defacement (chopped faces or nose, chopped limbs, and in some cases beheading). The temple premises retain ruins and local population has put back broken statues of Ganesha and other deities into the temple for active worship. This and other temples are under review and conservation efforts by the Telangana government. They have numbers stamped on them, a part of the preservation and restoration efforts. |
