Deepmala
Deep Jyoti Stambh or Deepa Stambha (Sanskrit: दीपस्तंभ, romanized: dīpastambha) is a unique piece of Hindu architectural
structure, usually found in Hindu temples. As the name indicates, Deep means "diya" ("oil lamp"), Jyoti means "light," and stambha means "a column." Such stambhas are erected outside the temple compound, to be illuminated with diyas on special occasions. Some large and unique deepa stambhas in India can be seen at the Mahalsa Temple in Ponda in Goa, Shanta Durga Temple in Goa, Harsidhhi Temple at Ujjain, Tekari Temple at Dewas, Khandoba Temple at Jejuri, Mangueshi Temple at Mangeshi, Sri Yellamma Renuka temple of Saundatti, Sharana Basaveshwara Temple of Gulbarga, and Banashankari Amma Temple near Badami in Karnataka — one of the most historically significant and tallest can be found in the village of Aundh (Maharashtra).
