Abhaneri, also spelled Abaneri, is a village in the Dausa district of the Indian state of Rajasthan, situated on the Jaipur-Agra Highway.

Modern day Abhaneri contains the ruins of an ancient city, Abhangari, as well as the popular tourist sites of the Chand Baori step well and the Harshat Mata Temple.

The site was first reported by B L Dhama in 1903 when he publised a List of Objects of Antiquarian Interest in the States of Rajputana.

Symbols of worship, such as the Sun shown as energy, Durga as Mahishasuramardini, and Shiva as destroyer and generator, are typical of the school.

In 1951, the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) described an ancient mound in the vicinity of Abhaneri that yielded numerous objects of arcaheological interest including many examples of red and grey slipware.

Abhaneri is famous for two important historical sites: the Chand Baori and the Harshat Mata Temple (the Harshatmata Mandir).

[8] Though it was substantially destroyed by Islamic invaders in the 10th century, the remains of the temple still include architectural and sculptural elements dating from the 8th-century.

Environmental concerns about excessive water harvesting have also raised the public profile of Abhaneri and its step well.
