What is an "anta"?
An anta is a vertical architectural element that forms a type of column or support at the end of a wall. It is usually wider than a typical column and can have grooves or be plain. Antas help to stabilize the structure while also adding decorative detail to the design of a building. They are often found in classical architecture, especially in temples and other significant structures, where they contribute to the overall aesthetic and strength of the architecture.
