Indian Epigraphical Glossary
Englishpagod, pagoda (EI 8-8), also called ‘star pagoda’
English
name of the gold coin called hūn (hon) or varāha
probably so
called because the coins often bore the representation of a
temple called pagod or pagoda by the early European travellers.
The word seems to have been derived from Sanskrit bhagavat or
bhagavatī meaning the deities worshipped in the temples and
also often figuring on the coins. Cf. ‘ṭaṅkakas stamped with the
figure of the Bhagavat’ (Bhandarkar's List, No. 2033).
Cf. Cīna-pagoda (SII 12), ‘the Chinese temple’
name of
a Buddhist shrine at Nāgapaṭṭanam.
