Pashgaon is a roadside village, 53 km north of Karim nagar of Lakhisetpet road. The very name of the village connotes-Pash standing for parsva, gaon for grama, i.e. parsvagrama, literally meaning left-side village. The nearby low hill range possesses spotted brown sandstone similar to Mathura and Bharhut examples. A few rock-cut shelters with plain beds and niches were noticed. The hillock is being indiscriminately quarried by the locals for the colour of the stone. Remains of the circular chaitya-griha of brick by the side of an impressive apsidal shrine and vihara complex were also visible on the hill-top. The circular chaitya was found encased around with ornamental limestone slab each measuring 1.50 X1.10 meters. These slabs possessed relief carvings as on the stupa slabs of Amaravati. The pilasters marking the terminals possess padma podukas, kumbha at the base and upper register, hexagonal mid-sections, etched with lotus medallions. The capital component has, interestingly addorsed ihamrigas or winged gaja-vyalas back-to-back. The floor around the pradakshina-patha is well laid and possesses Buddhist symbols like the svastika, srivatsa and nandipada made of chips of mother-of-pearl. |
