The Hoysalas ruled most of present-day Karnataka and parts of Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu between the 11th and 14th centuries CE. Prolific builders, Hoysala architecture stands out on two counts - it is marked by rich, intricately carved sculptures and the use of dark-hued soapstone that proved ideal, to work on.
