A substantial bronze casting hung from a wooden frame, its deep-toned voice carries across a temple courtyard and audible well beyond the sanctuary walls. Rung by acolytes and temple servants to mark devotion hours and summon the faithful to worship, a large bell signals the rhythm of religious life to the whole quarter. The resonance lingers long after the clapper strikes, creating a solemn, reverberant call.
Bell, temple
