| Details | The location of the temple "to w. of Târâ-Devi" is uncertain, but it may be immediately beside the temple of Mahānāman, shown in Cunningham's plan, see Map links. In this plan there is a small shrine just west of the Mahānāman temple with a pencil notation 'sculpture' which may indicate the source location of the image. |
