Summary
Description10th century Nilakantha Mahadeva Hindu temple, Nagara architecture, Sunak, Gujarat.jpg |
English: Sunak (also called Sonak) is a village about 8 kilometers west of Unjha town in Gujarat, and close to State Highway 130. It is southwest of Siddhapur.
This Sunak temple is one of many in this region built between the 8th and 11th-century. They are Nagara style temples of Hinduism and Jainism. The Hindu temples belong to Shaivism, Vaishnavism and Shaktism traditions. Like this temple, many have complete or partial inscriptions that help date these temples. Most were ruined, defaced and mutilated during the Delhi Sultanate raids and Hindu-Muslim wars of 13th to 16th-centuries. Portions of this temple have been restored, though with mutilated artwork. It is one of the few Hindu temples in Gujarat where many parts of the original temple were traceable and were put back together. This artwork is based on the photographs and sectional drawings of Henry Cousens published in 2D form in 1885 and 1903 (See e.g. The Architectural Antiquities of Northern Gujarat, Jas Burgess and Henry Cousens (1903), Archaeological Survey of Western India Volume IX, Plates LXXXI to LXXXVI).
