Question

explain devdasi system in hampi​

Answer 1

Answer:

In the Devadasi tradition, a girl (usually at a young age) is dedicated to a deity or a temple. The dedication ceremony is similar in many ways to a marriage ceremony. The Devadasis originally performed rituals and took care of the temple but over time they learned and practiced a dance form named Sadir, which today is widely known as Bharatanatyam. As dance and music were an essential part of worship, they enjoyed a high social status. Very often they married wealthy patrons but continued to perform their temple duties.
