Tamote Shwe Gu Gyi Pagoda

History of Ta Mok Shwe-gu-gyi Temple

Ta Mok Shwe-gu-gyi Temple:
Local Art in Upper Myanmar 11th–17th Centuries AD
.
The article explores the relationship of a local tradition of nine Shwe-gu or “golden caves” and the 11
khayaing of Kyaukse, the rice fields that supplied Bagan. Drawing on survey and ongoing work at the
Ta Mok khayaing Shwe-gu-gyi, we profile a local specificity essential to and yet far from the courts of
11th–17th century Bagan, Pinya and Inwa. In its multiple encasements of images and architecture, the Ta
Mok Shwe-gu-gyi records a transition from the visual complexity of Bagan period gu to the more iconic
structures of the Pinya and Inwa eras.
