Karerikuṭikā

One of the four principal buildings of Jetavana, the others being Kosambakuṭi, Gandhakuṭi, and Salalaghara, each being erected at a cost of one hundred thousand. Karerikuṭikā was built by Anāthapiṇḍika and was raised on pillars. A mandapa of Kareri (varuṇa) trees stood at the entrance to the kuṭikā, hence its name. DA.ii.407. The Bharhut bas-relief, however, makes of it a one-roomed cottage, Dial.ii.4, n.1. SnA.ii.403 has Candanamālā for Salalaghara.

Here was taught the Mahāpadāna Sutta (D.ii.1ff).
