Alampur

Nine Shiva shrines of the seventh and eighth centuries in Badami Chalukya work stand on the Tungabhadra bank a little above its meeting with the Krishna, with the goddess Jogulamba, counted a Shakti pitha, among them (board; from memory).

It is the western gate of the Srisailam pilgrimage and stands on the seam between Kakatiya, Hoysala and Yadava claims; no source we read says who holds it in 1200.
