Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Hundred-Columned Hall. Royal Center, Vijayanagara
This structure, which measures 40m (130ft) on a side, is often claimed as an "audience hall." However, its floorplan, a square 10-column by 10-column grid without central open space, has led some to question this use. The footings of the original wooden columns are still visible in the floor. The columns were 80 - 85 cm (31.5 - 33.5 inches) on a side. Metal clamps, inserted in the socket holes, fastened the columns to the floor. The columns themselves were burnt when the city was overrun in 1565. The concrete floor seen today is a modern covering; the original floor was plastered. To the south in this photo is a large staircase, which led up to the second story of the building. |
