dc.description.abstractReligion and architecture always has closely woven strings attached. Buddhism is a religion that has left a tremendously rich heritage, both tangible and intangible among which religious structures take precedence. The thesis chosen deals with a regional level study of the Brahmani river basin that houses Odisha’s most important Buddhist sites. These sites are the tangible proof of thousands of years of evolution, not just biological, but in terms of art, culture and economy. The diversity and historic values and significance is what makes this region a mine of opportunities. The region possesses more than 32 archaeological sites, hundreds of temples and one very ancient historic town Jajpur. Among these archaeological sites 15 are identified as prominent Buddhist sites, with archaeological evidences and historic records mentioning them. They are, Ratnagiri, Kolhanagiri, Udaygiri, Lalitgri and Olasuni, Langudi, Tarapur, Deuli, Kaima, Bajragiri, Kantigodia, Solampur, Marichi temple, Khadipada, Kupari, Soro and Kaupur. The five sites taken for the thesis are, Ratnagiri, Lalitgiri, Udaygiri, Langudi and Tarapur.
