Cave or Rock Shelter in Nepal
"The Department of Archeology (DoA) has claimed that the artifacts found in a cave at Pang-2, Kalimati of Parbat could be thousands of years old.
The department said initial investigation showed the statue of lord Krishna, clay pots and other artifacts found in the cave could be thousands of years old. A DoA team led by section officer Navaraj Adhikari reached the place and took the artifacts to Kathmandu for investigation."
