Summary
[edit]DescriptionMound locally known as 'Ballaldhipi' on the eastern flood plain of the Hooghly in Nadia district 21.jpg |
English: Mound locally known as 'Ballaldhipi' on the eastern flood plain of the Hooghly in Nadia district. During 1982 to 1988, Kolkata Circle excavated the Mound and exposed huge brick structures and various antiquities datable to c. 10th to 12th cent. AD.
A 30-ft structure of solid terracotta bricks is spread over an area of 1,300 sq ft. with a floor made of lime and sand. It is named after Ballala Sena (1160-1179) of the Sena dynasty. The brick structure include shrines on sides and a massive construction within an enclosure. Amongst the antiquities stucco heads possibly of Buddhist affiliation and copper objects used in religious purpose are noteworthy. Archaeologists have found traces of a temple complex. Historians differ on the origin of the structure. It may be the ruin of a Buddhist stupa or vihar, possibly built between the 11th and 13th centuries. It has similarities with Vikramshila Vihar, in Bihar and Shompur Vihar, in Rajshahi, Bangladesh. It may also be a part of the capital of the Sena dynasty.
