[1][2] Archaeological excavations done here in 1924 have unearthed a sixth-century antiquity in the form of a stone door frame with extensive carvings.

[4] The excavations of many mounds have revealed structural features built of brick and stone; these are in various stages of decay.

[6] The antiquities found at the Dah Parvatiya are inferred to have been from a temple complex built during the 5th or 6th century, prior to the Bhaskaravarman period.

On the basis of the mouldings and its architectural style it is inferred that the terracotta plaques are definitely not later than the 6th century; the altered form of motifs noted in Assam confirms this assessment.

This type of architectural feature, particularly in the stylistics of figurines of the ruins, is seen in North India, in the temples of the Bhumra and Nachha Kuthara which belonged to the Gupta period.

Further confirmation of the dating is provided by the carvings of the river Goddesses Ganga and Yamuna, which are also akin to the Greek architecture with striking similarity to the Hellenistic art.

[8] The excavated foundation of the temple of the Gupta period revealed the base of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) in a roughly square form measuring 8.925 feet (2.720 m) x 8.33 feet (2.54 m),[3][8] which is enclosed by a circumambulatory passage leading to a colonnaded hall of rectangular shape, which is interpreted as a mantapa or outdoor pavilion.

[11] The goddesses carved in an elegant standing posture are shown with divine halos over their heads with each figure holding a garland in its hands.

The central window has a Shiva carving known as "Lakulisa", meaning Lord with the staff, a rope tied to its leg and is flanked by two mythical deities, called "suparna", anthropomorphic figures of a bird and man.

The window to the extreme right has carving of Surya, the Sun god, in a cross-legged posture holding a lotus flower.
