Summary
[edit]Description12th to 13th-century Vadodari Gate, Dabhoi Fort, Gujarat 172.jpg |
English: The Vadodari Gate, also known as Vadodari Bhagol, is the western gate of the historic Dabhoi fort. In colonial era records, it is also referred to as the Baroda Gate of Dabhoi. In historic times, a road from this gate connected Dabhoi to Vadodara located to the northwest of the town. The Vadodari gate is elaborately carved with Hindu artwork. Near the gate are the extensive remains of soldier barracks and fort walls. It is the most complete structure that has survived, though it too shows evidence of deliberate mutilation (chopped limbs, beheading, gouging out, etc).
Dabhoi is an ancient city. The literary and archaeological evidence suggests it was already a major town by the 6th-century CE. It became a capital about 10th-century, was fortified by the 11th-century. Inscriptions suggest that a more elaborate stone fort was already complete in the 12th-century and additions to the fort were made in the 13th-century. Dabhoi was invaded and plundered in the 14th-century by the Delhi Sultanate, then became a part of Gujarat Sultanate. The Vadodari gate is notable for it Hindu goddesses and female dancer reliefs. The artwork include secular themes, reliefs relating to the Hindu epics and the Puranas of Shaivism, Vaishnavism and Shaktism. |
