There is, it is true, an architectural dif- ference between the "Gopura" and the "Pa- goda, " but the difference seems to consist chiefly 1 6 The Pagoda in this, that the latter is an exaggerated embel- lishment of the former. The Buddhist origin of the Pagoda is beyond all question an estab- lished fact.
