  1. 1Shore Temple at Mahabalipuram
  2. 2Brihadisvara Temple at Thanjavur
  3. 3Sun Temple at Konark
  4. 4Vittala Temple at Hampi

Cevap

The correct chronological sequence from earliest to latest is: Shore Temple at Mahabalipuram (c. early 8th century CE), Brihadisvara Temple at Thanjavur (c. 1010 CE), Sun Temple at Konark (c. 1250 CE), and Vittala Temple at Hampi (c. 16th century CE).
The correct chronological progression follows the rise of major ruling dynasties and their architectural styles: starting with the Pallavas at Mahabalipuram (early 8th century CE), followed by the Cholas at Thanjavur (early 11th century CE), the Eastern Gangas at Konark (mid-13th century CE), and concluding with the Vijayanagara period at Hampi (16th century CE).
