Description

Detail of the carvings on the steps leading to top of the ceremonial platform - Mahanavmi Dibba. This platform is from where the king of Vijaynagar would give his annual address to the people. The city was destroyed in 1565 after the defeat of the Vijaynagar Empire by the Deccan Sultanates and now few structures remain. The carvings depict daily life in the Vijaynagara kingdom in addition to elephants and mythical creatures. It was probably constructed in stages from the 14th to the 16th centuries.
