释义 |
The cave has the structure and polishing qualities of the Barabar caves, but without any inscription. It is smaller than the Barabar caves, measuring only 4.91x3.43m, with a ceiling height of 2.01m. The entrance is also trapezoidal, as for the Barabar caves.[1] According to a later Hindu legend, the cave was built by the legendary builder Vishvakarman.[2] This is also the cave is which Sita took refuge from Mara, hence the name of the cave.[2] The cave is sometimes considered as part of the "Rajgir group", together with Son Bhandar Caves.[3] References1. ^1 Gupta, The roots of Indian Art, p.194- {{Indian Buddhist Caves}}{{Jain Caves in India}}{{Bihar-geo-stub}}2. ^1 2 {{cite book |last1=Sajnani |first1=Manohar |title=Encyclopaedia of Tourism Resources in India |date=2001 |publisher=Gyan Publishing House |isbn=9788178350172 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=vdMNBxOsvrUC&pg=PA41 |language=en}} 3. ^{{cite book |last1=Le |first1=Huu Phuoc |title=Buddhist Architecture |date=2010 |publisher=Grafikol |isbn=9780984404308 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9jb364g4BvoC&pg=PA102 |language=en}} 7 : Caves of Bihar|Mauryan art|History of Bihar|Indian rock-cut architecture|Archaeological sites in Bihar|3rd-century BC religious buildings|Tourist attractions in Bihar |
