flag India resumes excavations at 13th-century Sukasari temple, uncovering ancient artifacts and structural remains near Bhubaneswar.

flag The Archaeological Survey of India has resumed excavations at the 13th-century Sukasari temple complex in Bhubaneswar, India, starting January 5, 2026, after a nearly three-year pause due to administrative issues and encroachments. flag Teams have dug to a depth of about 20 feet, uncovering a rare early idol, carved stone slabs, pottery fragments, and temple wall remnants, suggesting advanced Kalinga architectural traditions. flag The site, near the Lingaraj Temple, is believed to follow a Panchayatana layout and is part of the Ekamra Kshetra heritage initiative. flag The findings support ongoing efforts to document Bhubaneswar’s medieval past and protect its cultural legacy from urban development.
