Kedulan temple (Indonesian: Candi Kedulan; Javanese: ꦕꦤ꧀ꦝꦶꦏꦺꦣꦸꦭꦤ꧀, romanized: Candhi Kédhulan) is the ruin of a 9th-century Hindu candi located not far from Sambisari temple. The temple is in Tirtomartani village, Kalasan subdistrict, Sleman Regency, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The style and architecture bear striking similarities to the nearby Sambisari temple. And just like Sambisari, the temple compound is buried around 6 metres (20 ft) below the present surface, as the result of lava flow from the last eruption of Mount Merapi in the north.[1]
The temple complex was a compound enclosed in stone walls, with some parts still buried underground. Within the enclosure, there are four temples; one main temple facing east, and three smaller ancillary temples (candi perwara) in front of the main temple on the eastern side in a row running north to south. The style and layout are quite similar to Sambisari temple; however, Sambisari temple faces west and is located around 2.5 kilometres (1.6 mi) to the southwest.
History
The main temple was accidentally discovered on 24 November 1993, when a group of volcanic sand miners quarried the land. The village communally owned the land. Subsequently, archaeological excavations were commenced, led by BP3 Yogyakarta. After digging 6–7 metres (20–23 ft) deep, the ruins of the temple's main building were uncovered. The temple floor plan is a square measuring 13.7 metres (45 ft) on each side, and the height of the main building is 8.009 metres (26.28 ft) tall.[1] Currently, the temple is in disrepair; some parts are still buried and some stones are missing.
In 2017, the archaeological study and reconstruction project were in progress, and by early 2018, the temple reconstruction entered the anastylosis phase. The restoration of the entire Kedulan Temple complex was expected to be completed by the end of 2018.[2][3][4]
