Mysterious 15th-century Rock Carvings Dot Kalajhari Hills in Tripura
Devtamura, a nondescript place in Tripura where panels of 15th-century rock carvings exist on the steep slopes of a hill along the banks of the Gomati River, is poised to welcome tourists, thanks to an initiative of the state government.
The carvings have 37 sculptures of Hindu deities like Shiva, Ganesha, Kartikeya, Mahishasur Mardini, and Durga on the Kalajhari Hills.
It is not known who carved the figures of gods and goddesses in this remote place inhabited by Jamatiya and Reang tribes.
The chiselled wonder also known as Chabimura, 75 km from the state capital Agartala, had been pushed to obscurity by decades-old insurgency and a lack of proper infrastructures like roads and accommodation facilities.
