History
More people have heard of Ajanta and Ellora than of Aurangabad. But the story of this historic district on the Bombay border is almost as interesting as these famous masterpieces in art and architecture. The earliest trace of human habitation in this district was discovered in the shape of a paleolithic artifact at Moongi on the left bank of the Godavari. Antiquities of the Stone Age, have been discovered at several places in the district but the regular history begins circa 300 B.C., that is, at the beginning of the early Andhra period. Since then man’s genius has continuously exerted itself in fathoming the deepest recesses of the human soul. These sublime efforts have manifested themselves in monuments at various places, which are permeated with a spiritual glow. [2]
