History & tradition
Teli ka Mandir, the Teli Temple, stands within the Gwalior Fort in Madhya Pradesh. Dedicated to Shiva, Vishnu and the Matrikas, it has been variously dated between the early 8th and the early 9th century CE. Its design is unusual for a Hindu temple, with a rectangular sanctum in place of the usual square. It brings together elements of the Nagara style and the Valabhi form, in the North Indian tradition of the Gurjara-Pratihara period.
