Abstract | The Ghanasyam house of Sivasagar district and Namath Kali Mandir(Temple) of Nilachal hills, Guwahati, Assam, are among the most unique and detailed ornamented brick architecture monuments built during the reign of the Ahom dynasty in India. Although Namath kali mandir has retained only a few portions of its original architecture due to natural causes and vegetation, the remains still display detailed ornamentation. According to historians and scholars, both monuments follow similar architectural styles irrespective of geographical differences. This paper compares and analyses the architectural structure of both monuments. It studies the elemental compositions of bricks and mortar of each monument and compares the composition and structural pattern using Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDX), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). The results provide similarities in elemental compositions and structural patterns of the Bricks and Mortars of both monuments. |
