==Rekha deul==
[[David McCutchion|David J. McCutchion]] says that the pre-dominant traditional architectural style for temples in the western areas of Bengal in the pre-Muslim period is the tall curvilinear ''[[Deula|rekha deul]]'' and it went on developing from the late 7th century or early 8th century to around the 12th century, increasing its complexity and height but retaining its basic features. Such temples had “curvilinear ''[[shikhara]]'' with ''[[chaitya]]'' mesh decoration, surmounted by a large ''[[amalaka]]'' and ''[[Kalasam|kalasa]]'' [[finial]]. Examples of such dilapidated deuls are still standing at Satdeula (in Bardhaman), [[Bahulara Ancient Temple|Bahulara]] and [[Sonatapal]] (in Bankura) and [[Deulghata|Deulghat]] (in Purulia). On the brick deuls already mentioned here, plus [[Jatar Deul|Jatar]] (in 24 Parganas) and [[Para, Purulia|Para]] (in Purulia), “we find extensive and remarkably fine [[stucco]] work on carved brick”.<ref>McCutchion, David J., ''Late Mediaeval Temples of Bengal'', first published 1972, reprinted 2017, pages 3,13.
