These Hindu and Jain monuments are associated with the Early Chalukyas who reigned over this part of the Deccan during the 6th8th centuries. Together with a profusion of magnificent sculptures, mostly found in situ, these shrines and temples may be considered among the earliest, best preserved vestiges of temple art in India.
