The paper shall deal with female forms of idols particularly of Yakshi and would seek its transition from an independent powerful deity whose worship was widely spread once, to its eventual absorption and marginalization by the dominant religious traditions in ancient times and finally its coexistence with the Brahmanic deities among the rural communities in present times.

However, after the decline of Harappan civilization, there is a long gap and it is only in the Mauryan period that monumental stone sculpture and architecture appeared on the scene again. Court Art: Royal Buitldings: The Greek historian Megasthenese described the palaces of the Mauryan empire as one of the greatest creation of mankind and Chinese travelers Fa-Hian called Mauryan palaces as god gifted monuments or the monuments built by god not by humans. About Patliputra Megasthenese mentions that towns were surrounded by wooden wall where a number of holes were created to let the arrow pass by. A ditch was dug with the size of 60feet and 600 feet wide along with the wall. The town had 64 entrances and 570 towns. The royal assembly building situated in Kumhrars was a hall with 80 pillars. Its roof and floor were made of woods and its size was 140 feet long and 120 feet wide . Patanjali also mentioned Chandragupta’s Rajsabha in his Mahabhashya. Arian/Eriyan compared Chandragupta’s palace with the buildings of Susa and Ekbatan. Pillars: The majestic free standing Ashokan pillars symbolize the axis of the world that separated heaven and earth.
