However, from a reference to the Kannada Dictionary namely “Kannada-English Dictionary by Rev. Ferdinand Kittel”.
“Ankana” is defined as follows. “The (small or large) space either between any two posts or pillars in a wall that
support the roof, or between any two beams”. Also from the reference of Hindu Temple Architecture 'ankana' is
defined as distance between pillar and pillar on one hand, and between one pillar and another(wall) on the other.
Hence it has no definitive measurement.

Reference : Kannada-English Dictionary by Rev.F.Kittel page no.7
