Maluti temples
Maluti temples are a group of 78 extant terracotta temples (out of the original number of 108),〔 located in the Maluti village near Shikaripara in Dumka District on the eastern part of the Indian state of Jharkhand. These temples, according to the Indian Trust for Rural Heritage and Development (ITRHD), are dated between 17th and 19th centuries. The kings of Baj Basanta dynasty built these temples in Maluti, which was their capital, inspired by their family deity Goddess Mowlakshi. Many of the temples here are deified with different denominations of gods and goddesses, apart from the tutelary deity Mowlakshi, and others such as Shiva, Durga, Kali and Vishnu. Conservation of these temples has been proposed by the Global Heritage Fund (GHF), which would enhance the economy of the Maluti village due to increased tourism. GHF has declared this site as one among the world’s 12 most endangered cultural heritage sites.
