'''Quelossim''' is a village in [[Salcette|mormugao taluka]], [[South Goa]], India. This village was known as ''Kardalipura'' in ancient times and had a beautiful temple dedicated to the Mother-Goddess Shri [[Shantadurga]] & Shri [[Kavale Math]] which was shifted to [[Kavale]] 450 years ago when the [[Portugal|Portuguese]] demolished the shrine as a part of the inquisition.<ref>{{harvnb|Mukherjee|1999|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=YCJrUfVtZxoC&pg=PA188#v=onepage&q&f=false 188]}}</ref> The original temple was built by a [[Goud Saraswat Brahman]] trader Anu Shenvi Mone, but was destroyed during the religious persecution period around 1566 AD. Today the exact location can be accessed from NH66 via Kesarval Spring en route to Rassaim or Loutolim, where we can see a few architectural ruins, in the form of the original temple lake. A petite modern day shrine is seen under a huge banyan tree, at the end of this route property owned & maintained by Shree Shantadurga Saunsthan, Kavale and this area is protected by the Directorate of Archives & Archaeology, Government of Goa.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Sardesai|first=Sanjeev V|url=http://epaper.navhindtimes.in/NewsDetail.aspx?storyid=31187&date=2020-02-29&pageid=1|title=The Jatra of Sri Shantadurga, Kavlem|date=February 29, 2020|work=[[The Navhind Times]]|access-date=February 29, 2020}}</ref>
