Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

The southernmost of the stepwells in western India, most likely excavated from basalt, seems to have been reported when one of the less disreptuted Internet website drew the attention of gentlemen with a taste for stepwells to consider that one well near the temple has steps leading down (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratnagiri accessed 2006.06.13). SITUATION: At an unspecified location somewhere in the vicinity of the picturesque temple of the Goddess Bhagwati which is one of the important places of worship in the area of the fort of Ratnagiri (note 1).The southernmost of the stepwells in western India, most likely excavated from basalt, seems to have been reported when one of the less disreptuted Internet website drew the attention of gentlemen with a taste for stepwells to consider that one well near the temple has steps leading down (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratnagiri accessed 2006.06.13).
