Ancient Village in Durg district of Chhattisgarh. "Remnants of a burnt ancient city, believed to be dating back to 2nd century BC, have been found in an archaeological site in Tarighat. Artifacts were first found in 2008, prior to excavation.
Site location is for the modern village of Tarighat, and does not reflect the archaeological site. The “gutted settlement” reminds one the famed Roman city of Pompeii - The Asian Age.
Note: Remains of burnt ancient city found in Chandigarh, India.
