Description
Ellora looks into each of these groups of rock-cut temples by religion, patronage and stylistic influences each patron dynasty drew from surrounding regions. The contributors to this volume bring their considerable expertise on Ellora to provide a comprehensive understanding of the chronology, stylistic development and an overview and documentation of the 34 main caves and the lesser caves of the site. Also included is an extensive interview with the scholar Walter Spink, who is the author of several volumes on the caves of Ajanta. Complementing this authoritative research will be comprehensive photographs of the site and ground plans of the most significant caves.
