- Dhank_Caves abstract "The Dhank Caves are located in Rajkot district of the Indian state of Gujarat at a location called Dhank. They were chiseled out of a calcareous sandstone outcropping during Kshatrapa's regime. The caves are influenced by Buddhist and Jain cultures. The Buddhist cave include figures of Bodhisattva and the Jain cave includes figures of Adinath, Shantinath and Pārśva.This caves were carved in the 7th century A.D. and have a plain style of carving.This is one of the earliest rock cut cave of modern Gujarat state renowned as Dhank Jain cave situated in Rajkot district. This place is also known as Dhankgiri and about 48 km of Junagarh in north west direction. on western side of the hill there are three niches. One niche is facing the door and another two are situated on either side of it. The door facing niche contains some Jain Images in kayotsarga and meditation posture.Most of Savior sculpture do not contain a clear cognizance or lanchana but according to H. D. Sanklia this image represents Rishabhnatha.On either side of Jina two whisk bearers are depicted and Jina is sitting on a lion throne or Simhasan. There are two another mediation posture images of Jina saviors containing two whisk bearers on either side with serenity and tranquility on face.Triple canopies were depicted over the head of Jina. Fortunately, one of these image is depicted with Deer cognizance attributed to 16th Lord Shantinatha.One well preserved image of Lord parshwanatha is depicted in kayotsarga posture with long limbs parallel to body and cobra hood canopied. An image of Jaina yakshi ambika is also carved here who contains an infant in her arm and another with mango bud. from the ongoing discussion it is clearly evident that Dhank caves are attributed to Jainism and dwellers of these caves were Jain. Burgess did not say anything about the date of the Dhank caves but according to scholar H.D. Sanklia these caves could be hailed from 3rd Century AD after examining the Jaina sculpture's Style and Iconography. This cave is attributed to Digambara Jain.".
