It ended with the transfer of the kingdom from Hindu to Muslim hands in A.D. 1337, though probably small monolithic shrines, such as those of Patan and Koil, continued to be consecrated even after that time. The buildings which represent this style may conveniently be divided into two classes - namely, the Buddhist and the Brahmanical. | | Keywords : | | |
