This should not be confused with the similarly spelled Kalkeri village in Haveri district, about 20 kilometers southwest from Haveri, with two important Hoysala era temples – Someshwara temple (trikuta) and Basaveshwara temple (chaturkuta).[2] Furthermore, it should not be confused with three villages all named Kalkere – one near Bengaluru, other north of Soraba and near Hangal (with an important two-sanctum Hoysala temple), and third in a horse-shoe shaped valley south of Channagiri.
