An Entity of Type: person, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Temple tanks are wells or reservoirs built as part of the temple complex near Indian temples. They are called pushkarini, kalyani, kunda, sarovara, tirtha, talab, pukhuri, ambalakkuḷam, etc. in different languages and regions of India. Some tanks are said to cure various diseases and maladies when bathed in. It is possible that these are cultural remnants of structures such as the Great Bath of Mohenjo-daro or Dholavira, which was part of the Indus Valley civilization. Some are stepwells with many steps at the sides.

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Bei einem Tempelteich (englisch: temple tank; Hindi: kund; in anderen Regionen Indiens auch kalyani, pushkarini, tirtha, talab, pukhuri, sarovara) handelt es sich um ein stehendes Gewässer in unmittelbarer Nähe eines indischen Tempels (mandir) oder Tempelkomplexes. Eine eindeutige konstruktive oder definitorisch exakte Abgrenzung zu den Stufenbrunnen (vavs oder baolis) ist selbst für Inder in manchen Fällen schwierig – wichtigstes Unterscheidungskriterium ist das (Nicht-)Vorhandensein eines oder mehrerer Tempel in unmittelbarer Nähe.
