This book is based upon studies conducted around the Ramachandra Temple complex by scholars across various fields. Authored by many scholars, this book contains themes based on research, such as archaeology, architectural history, urban history, inscriptions and sculptures inside the temple complex, and carvings made of rock and granite, which are based upon the Ramayana themes.
This book is very important to study the history of Rama worship in medieval South India, and it has a long association with the Mahanavami festival, which is held during the Navaratri season.
