The word "deula" in Odia language means a building structure built with a particular style that is seen in most of the temples from Odisha.[2] Deul is also used in English, though the deul temples are also of a different form in the Manbhum region of Western Bengal.

The Khakhara deula is an alternative form of tower over the sanctuary, which in shape resembles the oblong gopuram temple gatehouses in southern Dravidian architecture.
