The history of kodla's temple.

Kodla Math Temple was built by a Brahman in the 17th century, but is not standing the test of time very well. It’s near a village named Ayodhya, about 10 km or so north of Bagerhat. This is a Hindu Moth (though it doesn’t look like a regular Hindu temple) locally known as Kodla Moth as it is located at the village Kodl

a. It has another name, which is Ojodhdhar Moth. May be the correct spelling can be Ayodhyar Moth. It is a tall structure that has a square shaped base. Approximate height of the Moth is slightly above the 18 meters.

It has three gates at the three sides. Outer wall is totally covered with the burnt soils (or bricks) and designed as horizontal parallel lines. Each of such horizontal lines are having a foot distance in between and those are found from top to the bottom of the structure. I have found 2/3 very small terracotta on the outer side of the walls. One was probably a shape of an elephant.

It is totally unknown these days about the builder of this Moth. It had a nearly destroyed inscription around it whose meaning is still unsolved these days. Scholar people are guessing this as an edifice of 16th or 17th century
