Temples: history, architecture and distribution

[Guest]

Dear Bodhi,
Your 1st Ra(?)si is from Jantar Mantar, Jaipur. (what is the word,
transliterated, for zodiac signs?)
Wow, you're doing just what interests me. Where do you think
Narasimha was 1st worshipped? Was Varaha from the region
around Vidisha? Did Ganesha originate somewhere in Maharashtra?

Are there any murtis you'd like from parts of India? I have lots.
Most recently from Pudukkottai dist. and Kaveri region. but earlier
Dwarka to Sundarbans, Delhi to Madurai, many many places between.
They aren't always 1st quality, but they are recognizable.
I have a murti from Kanchi, VaikunthaPerumal that I can't identify
of Vishnu, with yogiband around knees, floating over a big asur.
I'd love to contribute.
