Description
With surveys of diverse Buddhist and Hindu temples in India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, and even Malaysia, this books shows how the basic element in their architecture was fraught with iconographic import and input, necessitating the guidance of authoritative compendia, the arcane knowledge of the sthapati(priest-architect), and other complex procedures steeped in symbolism.
