The name Khajuraho is also derived
from khajura (date palm), that grows freely within the space and maybe as a
result of there have been 2 golden khajura trees on a engraved gate here. The
previous name was Kharjuravahaka (scorpion bearer), the scorpion figuration
toxic lust.
The temples were engineered beneath the late Chandela kings between
950 and 1050 AD in a very actually impressed burst of creativeness. With the
attenuation of Chandela fortunes, the importance of Khajuraho waned however
temple building continued till the

\'lost\' for hundreds of years till they were accidentally \'discovered\' by a
British engineer in 1839. Of the first eighty five temples, the twenty living
