During the course of exploration done by The department of Ancient Indian History and Archaeology, Patna University in year 1968-69, observed traces of a ancient mound about 8 km to the west of Sultanganj on the Sultanganj- Bhagalpur road. The ancient mound here is being eroded by the river Ganga.

Along the eroded bank, which is quite high at this place one can notice ring -well and remains of brick wall. The pottery recovered from the eroded bank included crude and fine varieties of black-and-red ware along with its associated types and the N.B.P. ware.
