Dhat Ras Temple Attic
The passage to the left from the top of the
staircase leads to the attic
(internal structure). [
Photo] The attic measures 4.17 meters long,
2.02 meters wide, and 1.40 meters high at the apex of the
ceiling. [
Photo] It has a barrel-vaulted
ceiling extending the length of the room. The room may have
been used for storage since the height is too short for an
adult person to stand erect.
Stairs continue up from the attic another
nine steps to the top of the temple. Although unable to
determine for certain, these steps perhaps led to the roof
above the attic and to the tops of the temple exterior walls.
[
Photo] There is no indication an additional room existed above the
attic.
