Image title: Dehr Warra. This single-storey excavation is in the southernmost group of the Buddhist caves, and dates back to the 6th century. It consists of a long spacious hall or vihara which was used as a Buddhist monastery as it is indicated by the residential cells cut into the side walls which can be seen in this print. The two long lines of benches carved out of the floor were probably intended for the use of the monks when studying or dining. The hall is divided into three aisles by two rows of columns
