Summary

Description
English: Badami caves are located in Badami, Karnataka, India. Inscriptions here help date two of these caves to the 6th-century, while parts of the third cave and the most of the fourth is likely from the 7th-century. All were likely complete in 6th to 7th century, with some additions to the Jain caves likely in early 8th century.
  • The above panel shows the son of Parvati and Shiva – Ganesha with a bowl of ladoos (sweets). He has only two hands, and simpler iconography than those found in later centuries.
