29. Anjaneri

Anjaneri


A hidden Jainacave-temple (now a shrine of the local Hindus) near the village of Anjaneri. A two-roomed cave, small in size yet remark- able for its sculptures. Height of the images a little over one metre.

 Meditating Jina at the entrance to Anjaneri village. In the direction the ox-cart is heading lie the extensive grounds of ruined temples, both Jaina and Hindu.

 Shows the partly restored Jaina temple. Eleventh/twelfth century. The cave (see page 79), which may be earlier than the temple, lies hidden in a ridge of the mountain range seen in the background.
