English: The Kumara Brahma temple is one of the nine Navabrahma temples that have survived in Alampur village, Telangana.
It was built in the second half of the 7th-century CE (likely 3rd quarter). It features a three tala (storey) spire with amalaka, a portico, a mandapa and pillars. This temple too has a square plan of Hindu architecture for temples, and it too opens to the east. The walls of Kumara Brahma temple are simpler as is the doorway, except for the pillars which are carved with ornaments, Ganesha and other motifs. Inside are reliefs from the Puranas and Hindu epics on pillars and pilasters. Also inside is a 7th-century relief of Saptamatrikas (Shaktism) carved out a single monolith. Above the Saptamatrikas is an inscription. Another shows a miniature apsidal shrine, confirming their heritage significance to the Hindus in the 7th-century. The sanctum is square too, with a covered circumabulation passage around it where stone mesh (jali) window allows light in from three sides. Above: Mahisasuramardini, Durga (Shaktism) |
