Lingusar: In this taluq there is an old 8th century fortress on a rock, situated between the two tributaries of Krishna at Jaldrug. From an inscription in the fort, it appears that the fort was built by one of the Yadava rajas of Devagiri (Daulatabad) about the close of the 12th century. There are numerous prehistoric sites in this taluq, while at Honhalli and Wendalli ruins of ancient smelting factories have been found. Wendalli is well-known for its gold working. [1]
