Kannauj: Villagers in the Sikandarpur area of the Kannauj district of Uttar Pradesh were stirred on Monday evening when news of treasure being unearthed in the excavation of a mound spread. The villagers reached the mound, but the bulldozers and truck drivers who were digging earlier fled with the urn. While fleeing, some coins that fell from the urn came into the hands of the villagers, and people started searching for the soil and coins of the mound.
At present, the Department of Archaeology has been informed in this regard and the officers have initiated an inquiry. Police are looking for the bulldozer and truck driver and have also seized the coins found with the villagers. It is not yet clear which metal the coins are made of, but there is talk of gold seals among the villagers. Tell you that the palaces and forts built during the reign of king and maharaja have collapsed years ago and have now been converted into mounds.
There have often been reports of jewelry, coins, and treasures being unearthed in the excavation of mounds. Kannauj, the land of Prithvi Raj Chauhan, also has an ancient history. There are forts and palaces in many places, which have now been converted into mud mounds and buried in the ground. The treasure is also said to be buried in the palace buried under these mounds, and at many places, the archaeological department has also launched search operations.
