In this MP village, archaeologists dig for the oldest temple in India

IndiaTimes Friday, 15 March 2024
The dig sites are in Nachne village, merely 30 metres from another archaeological wonder — a Gupta-era Parvati temple — and close to Chaumukhi temple, built by the Kalachuri Dynasty (6th-7th centuries CE). It’s a site rich in history and less than 100 km from Khajuraho. “We are carrying out this excavation with the objective of finding the oldest temple in India,” ASI superintending archaeologist (Jabalpur circle) Shiva Kant Bajpayee told TOI.
