Description:
The Mayamata is a significant treatise on Vastusastra, which is the ancient science of architecture and dwelling. Authored by Dr. Shailja Pandey, this comprehensive work explores every aspect of the design and construction of buildings, particularly temples, houses, mansions, and palaces. From the selection of the site to the iconography on temple walls, this book serves as an invaluable resource for understanding traditional architecture.
The Mayamata offers precise guidelines for the orientation, dimensions, and materials suitable for different types of structures. It aims to be both a manual for architects (sthapatis) and a practical guide for the general public. The treatise's insights, well-rooted in the architectural traditions of South India, provide significant relevance in the present day, especially as the field of architecture seeks to integrate traditional knowledge into modern practices.
