: Wikipedia: India History

峾īٳ (रामतीर्�) is the name of a sacred place situated near Halasi—a town in Khanapur Taluk, Belgaum District in Karnataka, India. [...] On a hill about 1.9 km. south-west of the town is a pilgrimage place known as Rāmatītha. [...] A short distance to the south west of Halsi, on a rocky outcrop, is a natural water tank with two temples. Dedicated to Śiva as Rāmeśvara, the main building is a simple stone structure with a ṇḍ貹. The pillars of the hall stand in the tank proper. The spire over the sanctum is similar in style to the Varāha Narasiṃha and it probably dates to the same period. A third ruined temple, with only some walls and parts of the door frame, is located a short distance to the south.
