THE GOA GAJAH (“Elephant Cave”) became known to Westerners only in 1923. It is thought to date from the 11th century. Steps lead down to the temple and other monuments, about 15 m (50 ft) below road level. The large springs, excavated in 1954, were intended probably for bathing and as a source of holy water. The cave itself, with a large face in the exuberantly carved surrounding rock, is a small, rather airless, T-shaped chamber in which are niches containing Shivite and Buddhist statues. Outside the cave is a shrine to the Buddhist child-protector Hariti, depicted as the Balinese Men Brayut, a poor woman with too many children. In a ravine a little to the south are a spring and more shrines.
