The brick temple of the Gupta period is located at —

Bhitargaon near Kanpur preserves a major Gupta-period brick temple noted for its tall structure and terracotta decorative panels. This question belongs to the Gupta and post-Gupta phase, a period reconstructed through inscriptions, coins, monuments, literary works, scientific texts and accounts of foreign travellers. The Gupta age is often described as a classical or golden age because of important achievements in Sanskrit literature, temple architecture, sculpture, astronomy and mathematics, but the label should not conceal regional diversity or social and political change. Deogarh’s Dashavatara temple, the Bhumara temple and the Tigawa temple are principally stone structures. The stated answer is therefore correct because it satisfies the person, period, source and context together.
