Short Answer Type Question:

What was the role of temples during the Chola kingdom?

Short Note

Solution

The Chola rulers like Rajaraja and Rajendra built two great temples of Thanjavur and Ganaikonda-Chola Puram respectively. Temples were the nuclei of settlements during this period. They were the centres of craft production and also controlled the financial aspects related to them. Hence they were not only the religious centres but also the hub of economic, social, and cultural life as well.
