👉 In Hinduism, a kiva (also known as a gopuram) is an architectural feature that is often associated with the worship of gods and goddesses. Kivas are typically found in temples or other religious structures, but they can also be found in houses or homes. They serve as a place for communal rituals and offerings to the gods. The term "kiva" itself comes from the Sanskrit word "kiva," which means "a well."
