Abstract:

In Andhra Pradesh, in the village of Lepakshi, there is a temple dedicated to Veerabhadra. This temple, from the Vijayanagara Empire, is located in the Hindupur taluk of the Anantapur district. The murals from the Vijayanagara Empire are a specialty of this place. If one wants to witness the amalgamation of Vijayanagara's art, architecture, and temple craftsmanship in one place, then this temple is the most suitable. Here, there are many paintings and sculptures depicting various subjects. In the glorious Vijayanagara Empire, the allure of adornments is evident on all men and women, but the nose rings are nowhere to be seen. This is the subject of research undertaken in this essay.

Abstract:

Abstract The eponymous capital of Vijayanagara was largely abandoned following the defeat of the imperial army at Talikota in 1565. The city was burned and looted and its monumental temple complexes, gateways, and images left in ruins. Despite large-scale damage to architecture in the city, however, the level and focus of destruction was strikingly variable. In this paper, we draw on the material record of late Vijayanagara temple complexes and other archaeological evidence to examine patterns of differentially distributed political violence. We suggest that these patterns may be understood, in part, in terms of the contemporary politics of sovereignty, incorporation, and reconstitution of elite authority. Drawing on these observations, we discuss the role of commemorative destruction as well as post-1565 temple rededications and abandonments in the afterlife of Vijayanagara as a social space. In particular, we examine the potential of monumental violence to act as a symbol or to index social memory through a creative and fluid process of instituting claims about the past, heritage, authenticity, and the nature of the present.

Abstract:

The existing temple complex in Hampi, Karnataka, India was extensively studied, analyzed and documented. The complex was measured-drawn and digitized by plotting its edges and vertices using AutoCAD to generate 2d drawings. The graphic 2d elements developed were extended into 3 dimensional objects using Google sketch-up. The tool has been used to facilitate the visual re-construction to achieve the architecture of the temple in its original form. 3D virtual modelling / visual reconstruction helps us to visualize the structure in its original form giving a holistic picture of the Vijayanagara Empire in all its former glory. The project is interpreted graphically using Auto-CAD drawings, pictorially, digitally using Sketch-Up model and Kinect.

Abstract:

This research delves into the intricate evolution of Indian temple architecture, spanning centuries of cultural and religious transformations. Originating in the Vedic/Aryan civilization, worship centered on natural elements with a simple square altar. A pivotal shift occurred with the introduction of idol worship, marking the genesis of temple architecture evolution. Initially, rock-cut structures featured a garbagriha and semi-open portico, retaining the windowless garbagriha from rock-cut temples. The Chalukya era saw experimentation, notably at Durga in Aihole and Pattadakal, earning the latter the title "Cradle of temple architecture" due to Nagara and Dravida style exploration. Pallavas contributed to the Dravidian vimana prototype, as seen in Mahabalipuram's monolithic rathas. Cholas refined the vimana, erecting the Brihadeshwara temple in Tanjore with a mortar-less construction. Pandyas added Gopurams, reflecting emotional ties. Hoysalas introduced star temples with intricate carvings, featuring single to multiple garbagrihas in various styles. The Vijayanagara era introduced Amman temples and Kalyana mantapas. Nayakas refined Dravidian architecture with concentric prakaras and tall gopurams. In the 20th century, transformative shifts like the Isha Center in Coimbatore embody inclusivity, challenging traditions, and fostering diverse spiritual environments. Key Words: Indian temple architecture, Cultural transformations, religious evolution, vedic/Aryan civilization, rock-cut structures.

Abstract:

Abstract The Chand Minar (1446) at Daulatabad Fort is one of the tallest pre-modern stone minarets in the world and has long been recognized as a major work of Indo-Islamic architecture. Yet surprisingly little is known about the building: its iconography and the reason for its construction have not been established; even its height is frequently misreported by half. The present article analyzes the building’s architecture and urban context and critically reads its inscriptions against the Tārīkh-i Firishta (ca. 1610), the main primary text for the history of the medieval Deccan. In so doing, the article demonstrates that issues of race shaped the courtly politics in the Deccan at the time of the minaret’s construction. The Chand Minar was commissioned by Parvez bin Qaranful, an African military slave, who dedicated the building to the Bahmani sultan ʿAla⁠ʾ al-Din Ahmad II (r. 1436–58). The article shows that the building commemorated the role of African and Indian officers in a 1443 military victory of the Bahmani sultanate (1347–1527) against the Vijayanagara empire (1336–1664). The construction of the Chand Minar impressed upon Ahmad II the importance of retaining in his court dark-skinned officers from India and Africa (dakkaniyān) at a time when their standing was threatened by the lighter-skinned gharībān, who had immigrated from the western Islamic regions. The article thus presents a detailed study of an important but neglected monument while shedding new light on racial factionalism in the fifteenth-century Deccan.

Abstract:

The present study was conducted during winter (November‑December, 2022) in Jasmine growing area of Huvina Hadagali Taluk, Vijayanagara District to assess the soil micronutrient status in Jasmine growing area and analysed for their fertility parameters. A total of 60 soil samples were collected, of which 30 surface (0‒20 cm) and 30 subsurface (20‒40 cm) soil depths covering six villages namely Huvinahadagali, Hanakanahalli, Vinobhanagara, Meerakornahalli, Devagondana-halli and Thippapura. In surface soil, available micronutrients boron, zinc, iron, copper and manganese ranged from 0.45 to 1.28, 0.24 to 0.98, 1.17 to 7.90, 0.30 to 3.76 and 2.44 to 22.52 mg kg-1, respectively. Mean soil pH was 7.96, mean soluble salt was 0.27 dS m-1 and soil organic carbon ranged from 2.40 to 6.80 g kg-1. In subsurface soil, available micronutrients boron, zinc, iron, copper and manganese ranged from 0.36 to 1.09, 0.16 to 0.80, 0.96 to 6.76, 0.16 to 2.72 and 1.84 to 20.86 mg kg-1, respectively. Mean soil pH was 8.06, mean soluble salt was 0.32 dS m-1 and soil organic carbon ranged from 1.60 to 6.00 g kg-1. The results showed that depending on the nutrient nature, their concentration was either found in the range of deficit, or sufficient or in excess due to poor nutrient management practices like continuous use of chemical fertilizers and less use of organics which results in poor soil fertility leading to low yield and low quality of Jasmine flowers.

Abstract:

Le site archéologique de Senji se situe dans l’Etat du Tamil Nadu en Inde du Sud. Il est connu pour son ensemble fortifié qui se déploie sur trois impressionnantes collines de granit, qui a contribué à forger une partie de l’histoire de cette région du XVe siècle au XIXe siècle. Célébré pour son système défensif, l’architecture religieuse de Senji n’a jusqu’à présent jamais été étudiée dans son intégralité. Cette thèse se propose de faire une étude détaillée des temples et des lieux de cultes hindous de Senji et de sa région proche. Elle traite des édifices de pierres dédiés aux grandes divinités du panthéon hindous et analyse les relations idéologiques qu’elles entretiennent avec les divinités locales et de village, dont le culte ne s’exprime pas toujours par des structures pérennes. Les monuments sont replacés dans leur contexte historique, datant majoritairement du XVIe siècle pendant la période de domination Vijayanagara- Nāyaka. L’histoire de la dynastie Nāyaka de Senji est examinée afin de comprendre les motivations des commanditaires. A travers une étude architecturale détaillée et une analyse des thèmes iconographiques présents sur le site, on tente de déterminer les principes qui régissent la construction de ces temples à l’époque, ainsi que leur utilisation politique dans un contexte militaire et troublé, servant des besoins d’affirmation et de légitimité du pouvoir des souverains de Senji au XVIe siècle. Cette étude contribue également à considérer le site sous une vue plus patrimoniale et en terme de protection des monuments historiques et de l’héritage architectural indien
The archaeological site of Senji (Gingee) stands in Tamil Nadu, in Southern India. Senji is famous for its fortified walls and castles built upon and between the three main granitic hills of the area, which contributed to change this part of the Tamil country History between the 15e and the 19e centuries. Known for its military aspects, the religious architecture of Senji had yet never been under proper and full study. This dissertation tries to make a detailed study of the Hindu stone temples and places of worship in Senji and its close area. The research focuses on the pan-Indian Hindu temples and analyses the existing relation between them and the local goddesses whom places of worship are not systematically built in long lasting materials. Monuments are situated in the original historical context, mainly in the 16e century during Vijayanagara-Nāyaka domination. The history of Senji’s Nāyaka dynasty is also analysed in order to understand the concepts that rules temples constructions à these times, and the use of religious architecture in this troubled and warfare context, serving the purpose of legitimacy of their power on the 16e century. This research also tries to consider Senji as the object of conservation and preservation, and in terms of Indian cultural and architectural heritage
