The analysis of these lists shows that there are 250 Saiva temples in Kumaon and 350 in Garhwal, and that there are but 35 Vai^hnava temples in Kumaon and 61 in Garhwal. To the latter class may, however, be added 65 temples to Ndgraja in GarhwM which are by common report affiliated to the Vaishnava sects, but in which Siva also has a place under the form of Bhairava. Of the Saiva temples, 130 in Garh- wal and 64 in Kumaon are dedicated to the S^kti or female form 702 HIMALAYAN DISTRICTS alone, ...but of the Vaishnava temples in both districts only eight.
