Little known facts about Jagannath temple architecture, Puri.
#Thread👇
1. The first instance of repairing of temple at Puri is assigned to Jajati I of Somabamsi dynasty in around 950CE.
He repaired the existing dilapidated temple meant for Nrusimha & Bimala.

2. Both the Nrusimha & Bimala temple bear the architectural elements of Somabamsi period & also predates the main Deula.

The present main temple(deula) was constructed after 200yrs of renovation by Jajati I. i.e. during early 12th CE by Anantabarman Chodagangadeba.

3.The Jagamohana was built few years after completion of the Bimana during the same Ganga rule as evident from Bada portion of the porch which is artistically similar to the deula.
Whereas Madalapanji mentions that it was built in 16th CE by Mukunda Harichandan.

କୋଣାର୍କ ପାଖ ବେଲେଶ୍ୱର ଠାରେ ରହୁଥିବା ଋଷି ସୁମନ୍ୟୁଙ୍କର ଚନ୍ଦ୍ରଭାଗା ନାମ୍ନୀ ଅତ୍ୟନ୍ତ ସୁନ୍ଦରୀ କନ୍ୟାରତ୍ନଟିଏ ଥିଲେ। ଦିନେ ଚନ୍ଦ୍ରଭାଗା+
The sage sumanyu has a beautiful daughter named Chandrabhaga. Both were living at Beleswara near konarak. One day while chandrabhaga,

ବେଳାଭୂମିରେ କନ୍ଦୁକ ଖେଳୁଥିବା ସମୟରେ, ସୂର୍ଯ୍ୟ ଦେବତା ତାଙ୍କୁ ଦେଖି ମୋହିତ ହୋଇଗଲେ ଏବଂ ତାଙ୍କୁ ନିଜର କରିବାକୁ ପ୍ରସ୍ତାବ ଦେଲେ।
was playing with a ball on the beach, the Sun God saw him and was enamoured by her beauty. Being enamoured the Sun God offered Chandrabhaga to come with him.

କିନ୍ତୁ ଚନ୍ଦ୍ରଭାଗା ଏହିପ୍ରସ୍ତାବରେ ରାଜି ହେଲେନାହିଁ ତେଣୁ ସୂର୍ଯ୍ୟ ତାଙ୍କୁ ବଳପୂର୍ବକ ନିଜର କରିବାକୁ ଚେଷ୍ଟାକଲେ।ଅନନ୍ୟୋପାୟ ହୋଇ ଚନ୍ଦ୍ରଭାଗା ସମୁଦ୍ରକୁ ଡେଇଁ ଜୀବନଦେଇଦେଲେ।
Bt Chandrabhaga refused d offer,so SunGod tried to capture her forcefully.Being helpless Chandrabhaga drowned herself into d sea
