It is astonishing !!!

How to possible almost 1800 year old rock cut made ? Any technology ?

This is Lomas Rishi Cave, one of several man-made Barabar Caves.

The Barabar Hill Caves (Hindi बराबर, Barābar) are the oldest surviving rock-cut caves in India, dating from the Maurya Empire (322–185 BCE), some with Ashokan inscriptions, located in the Makhdumpur region of Jehanabad district, Bihar, India, 24 km (15 mi) north of Gaya.

The cave of Lomas Rishi is probably the most famous of the caves of Barabar, because of its beautifully carved door. It is on the southern side of Barabar granite hill, and is adjacent to Sudama cave, which is on the left. Lomas Rishi consists of two rooms: a rectangular room measuring 9.86x5.18m, and a circular, semi-hemispherical room 5m in diameter, which is accessed from the rectangular room by a narrow rectangular passage.

My diary 4th April 2022

 Have added some more individual songs under the label G. N. B  and now it has 57 files. Please enjoy. As the awareness of past glory and history is growing, it is essential to preserve our past, and this blog is one of the humble efforts. In spite of many hurdles, I am trying to restore and preserve the lost master pieces, for the future generation. Since, I crossed 80 years now, I am trying to do my best, before anything happening to me, so that the collections don't die. Hope you will understand the handicaps, and encourage me as usual. The map in my blog indicates, how far and wide, across globe, this blog is viewed and happy to note, that this GREAT ART will exist forever.
