Western Chalukya
History & significance The largest of Lakkundi's Jain temples, raised in 1007 CE by Attimabbe, wife of the general Nagadeva, and the earliest dated example of the Western Chalukya idiom in the village. Its sanctum lintel carries Mahavira, though the temple is now worshipped as a shrine of Neminatha.

Not yet sourced: how to reach it, its sthala katha, who paid for it and a source beyond Wikipedia.
Those are gaps in our citations, not in the record of the site. A field appears here only once we can cite it, so an absent one means the sourcing is still to do — most of these facts are well attested somewhere we have not read yet: a gazetteer, an inscription volume, the temple’s own office. We omit rather than guess.
