Across Acoustics

An Archeoacoustic Look at Two Hindu Temples

16 Jun 2025

Description

Much of the research into the historical acoustics of worship spaces has focused on Christian churches or Islamic mosques. However, little is known about the acoustic history of Hindu worship spaces, despite Hinduism being the third largest religion in the world. Shashank Aswathanarayana and Braxton Boren (American University) share their efforts to fill this knowledge gap by studying the acoustics in Hindu temples from the 8th and 15th centuries. Associated paper: Shashank Aswathanarayana and Braxton Boren.
