So, these clever researchers found something truly special. They discovered the remains of an old temple, like a super ancient one! Even though it’s all broken now, they were able to uncover the base of the temple, some huge rocks, and even some really pretty carvings. Can you imagine how massive this temple must have been?

But wait, there’s more! These super sleuths also found a special pot that’s super important to the Hindu religion. How cool is that? It’s like finding a treasure chest filled with secrets from the past!

Now, get this, buddy. The place where they found all these ancient wonders used to be ruled by important families a long, long time ago. Can you believe it? It’s like discovering a hidden kingdom lost in time!

Important Details

  • Let’s dive into some important details so you can impress your friends with your newfound knowledge. The archaeologists found the remains of this ancient temple in a place called Odisha, in India. It’s a really old temple, probably built between the 13th and 15th century. That’s like a bajillion years ago! Back then, a powerful family called the Eastern Ganga Dynasty ruled the area. They must have been like the kings and queens of the land!
  • Now, here’s the thing. The temple isn’t as pretty as it used to be. It’s in ruins now, but the researchers discovered these massive stone blocks and carvings that give us a glimpse of how stunning it once was. It must have been a sight to behold, my friend!
  • You know what’s super fascinating? This temple wasn’t the only one around. People who lived in the area a long time ago built lots and lots of temples. This one we’re talking about was just one of them. Imagine a whole bunch of temples all together, like a temple village!
  • And get this, the temple ruins were discovered by a local man who happened to see them when the bushes were cleared for the railway. Talk about being in the right place at the right time! It’s like he stumbled upon a hidden secret just waiting to be found.
  • So there you have it, my little adventurer. The researchers of the Indian National Trust for Art & Cultural Heritage uncovered the ancient remains of a temple that takes us back in time to a land ruled by important families. It’s like stepping into a history book, but way more exciting!
