Title:

Remains at Lauriya Nandangarh. Photographer: Caddy, Alexander Edwin

Scope & Content:

Genre: Landscape Photography

View looking across a small lake towards the remains of a mound, purpose unidentified. See A.C.L. Carlleyle, Report of Tours in Gorakhpur, Saran, and Ghazipur in 1877-78-79 and 80 (A.S.I., vol. XXII, Calcutta, 1885), p. 46: 'I also visited the great mound at Naonadgarh, and made as searching an examination of it as possible. But when I visited it, it was so densely covered with thick jangal, especially on the top of it, that it was almost impossible to make one's way through it. A personal examination of this great mound has filled me with grave doubts as to whther it ever was a fort at all, as General Cunningham has supposed. That is to say, the conclusion which I have come to is that the original purpose of this great mound, when it was first constructed, was not that of a fort, but rather that of a great national monument...'
