12th-Century Temple Pillar Fragments Discovered in Hinganghat

  • Fragments of a 12th-century Mandir-style stone pillar have been discovered near the banks of the Vena River in Hinganghat town, Wardha district, about 70 km from Nagpur. The remains were identified by researcher Panchsheel Thul during a survey of ancient temple sites, with Pravin Kadu confirming features linked to the Seuna Yadava dynasty. The carved basalt fragments, including a lotus motif, suggest they formed part of a sabhamandap or stood before the garbhagriha, indicating a substantial medieval temple complex in the region.
  • Experts say the carvings reflect the Hemadpanti architectural style, known for precisely interlocked black basalt stones without lime mortar. This style flourished under Yadava rule across Maharashtra and Vidarbha. Historians believe Hinganghat was once a prominent cultural and religious centre. Researchers have urged authorities and the Archaeological Survey of India to conduct a scientific survey and ensure immediate protection of the exposed fragments.
