Chandela

Chandela

Les Chandela sont un clan rajpoute que l'on rencontre en Inde au Rajasthan, au Haryana, et en Uttar Pradesh ; ils ont formé une dynastie qui a régné sur une grande partie du Bundelkhand, région du centre de l'Inde, pendant de longues périodes du Xe siècle au XIIIe siècle.

Les Chandela sont célèbres dans l'histoire de l'Inde du fait notamment du roi Vidyadhar, qui repoussa les attaques de Mahmoud de Ghazni. Son intérêt porté à la sculpture se retrouve dans les temples de Khajuraho et du fort de Kalinjar, qui appartiennent au patrimoine mondial.
