A 12th to 13th-century temple, ruins with mutilated artwork

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This is a three sanctum Shiva temple, with three entrances. The entire temple was built on a platform. It is also referred to as Kataksapura Shivalaya, Kotagullu.

It is near two other large temples, also in ruins. These are made from gray granite and are in the same style as Palampet (Ramappa), Ghanpur and Hanamakonda temples.

The temple is likely from the 12th or 13th-century, based on its iconography. Much artwork here is defaced and mutilated (chopped face, limbs, etc). The temple remains show signs of deliberate damage, broken stone panels scattered randomly. The structure was likely pulled down and injured. The villagers have attempted to put parts of the temple back and resume services.

Items from this temple have also been moved to local area museums.
