fine temples in Ikkeri and Keladi using a combination of late <a href="/wiki/Kadamba_Dynasty" class="mw-redirect" title="Kadamba Dynasty">Kadamba</a>, <a href="/wiki/Hoysala" class="mw-redirect" title="Hoysala">Hoysala</a>, <a href="/wiki/Vijayanagara_Empire" title="Vijayanagara Empire">Vijayanagar</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Dravidian_architecture" title="Dravidian architecture">Dravida</a> styles. The use of granite for their construction shows they simply followed the Vijayanagar model of architecture. The Aghoreshwara temple at Ikkeri and the Rameshwara temple at Keladi are the best examples of the Nayakas' art. Vijayanagar-style pillars with hippogryphs are common; called <i>yali</i> columns (depiction of horses and lions as seen in <a href="/wiki/Hampi" title="Hampi">Hampi</a>) is found here. These are pillars with lions, either with their forepaws raised or simply in a sitting position, and pillars with a mythical horse-like animal with front legs raised, balancing on its rear legs, and with an armed rider on its back which are worth seeing at Ikkeri. A roof sculpture depicting a <a href="/wiki/Gandaberunda" class="mw-redirect" title="Gandaberunda">Gandaberunda</a>, the mythical two-headed bird of Karnataka, is found in Keladi. Also, in the Rameshwara temple, a pillar sculpture shows Maratha Rajaram with Keladi Chennamma (history has it that Rajaram was protected by the queen when he was on the run from the Mughals). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Religious_tolerance">Religious tolerance</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Nayakas_of_Keladi&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Religious tolerance"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The Keladi Nayakas were <a href="/wiki/Lingayatism" class="mw-redirect" title="Lingayatism">Veerashaivas</a>, patronized the religion, constructed numerous mutts and were responsible for the spread of <a href="/wiki/Veerashaivism" class="mw-redirect" title="Veerashaivism">Veerashaivism</a> to the <a href="/wiki/Malenadu" title="Malenadu">Malenadu</a> and <a href="/wiki/Coastal_Karnataka" class="mw-redirect" title="Coastal Karnataka">Coastal Karnataka</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Rulers_of_Keladi_5-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Rulers_of_Keladi-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> There were sixty four mutts in the district of <a href="/wiki/Dakshina_Kannada" title="Dakshina Kannada">Dakshina Kannada</a> alone.<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Nevertheless, they were tolerant towards followers of other religions and other <a href="/wiki/Hindu" class="mw-redirect" title="Hindu">Hindu</a> denominations.
