With a documented history
stretching back to 2000 BC, it is no wonder
that Odisha is dotted with with ancient
monuments ranging from the ruins of
Sisupalgarh to the magnificent Lingaraj and
Jagannath temples, from the world heritage
site of the Konark Sun temple to the
exquisitely carved Mukteswar and other such
temples. The various archaeological finds at
Ratnagiri, Lalitgiri, Udaigiri and other
locations prove that Odisha has also been
influenced by Buddhist thought. Jainism too
has left its mark on Odisha as the rock cut
caves at Khandagiri & Udaygiri as well as
remains at other locations show. |
