1.	Why did the kings of Vijayanagara live in a separate quarter and not in the middle of the city as in Orugallu?
Answer» Orugallu city was constructed around the temple of Lord Siva. So for the sake of protection the kings lived in the centre of the city. Many secular structures bearing Islamic features were present in the Vijayanagara apine architecture. There are many arches domes and vaults in those constructions. The Royal centre zone is subdivided into irregular interlocking compounds by high slender walls built of tightly fitted granite blocks that face a rubble cone. So because of these safety measures the kings of Vijayanagara lived in a separate quarter.
