The temple of Varuna Mahadeva at the village Varana (Kaccha) retains an old structure of the Garbhagriha, along with its Sikhara and the Sabhamandapa, ^{3 3} 92. Somanatha and other Medieval Temples of Kathiawad pp. 57-58. Dr. H. D. Sankalia inclines to place the Navalakha temple at Sejakpur, near in time to that of Ghumali and he does not believe that the former belonged to the 11 th cent, as Cousens had placed it. On this anology, however, Shri Meter A. Dhaky ascribes this temple to the reign of Siddharaja (1094-1144 A. D.) (The Chronology of Solanki Temples of Gujarat p. 54) 93.
