ANCIENT stone TEMPLE AT VEMULAKONDA FORT BUILT BY SARVAI PAPANNA

 this is a stone  temple  built of chiselled beams and pilars. Garuda and hanuman  images are carved  on the front pillars indication that it is a Vaishnava temple. There is  no image of god in the temple and no pooja takes place  when this fort was scaled by me in 2010. No inscription is available on structure. Papanna was a shiva  worshipper  and is unlikely that this was built by him.The presiding deity on the ill in the fort is Matsya narsimha swamy where regular worship takes place even today.
