The different architectural techniques of temple building in different regions are the result of geographical, climatic, ethnic, cultural, national and historical diversities.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages.
