A	Alok Sinha on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Dewari/Deori literally means brother-in-law. There were quite few such named temples around the region. It is also known as Bheem-Kichak temple. The dome or shikhar of the temple has been completely ruined. Only the side walls are standing. Walls are exquisitely sculpted. There are many sculptures which looked like a strong man, may be Bheem, which is why it could have been named Bheem-Kichak temple. There are few big sculpted heads in the lawn of the temple which were reminiscent of Easter Island heads though not of that scale in size and antiquity.
