Celebrating 1000 years of Rajendra Chola I — the emperor who took Indian naval power to Southeast Asia and built Gangaikonda Cholapuram.
On the serene left bank of the Pravara River, in Maharashtra’s Ahilyanagar district, lies Daimabad - a silent mound with thousand years of hidden history.
Excavated by M.N. Deshpande and S.A. Sali, Daimabad revealed a rich five-fold cultural sequence and is famous for a chance discovery of remarkable bronze objects, having beautiful bronze artefacts including an elephant, rhinoceros, buffalo and a man riding a simple two-wheeled chariot attached to two yoked oxen. There is a small figure of a dog standing on the central pole of the guard of the chariot – all belonging to the late Harappan phase. These objects were solid cast and heavy, weighing 60 kg altogether. They reveal considerable casting skill and aesthetic finesse.
Bronze figures of such type have not been discovered in other parts of India, placing Daimabad on a unique place in Indian History.
From 2300 to 1000 BCE, the region saw five cultural phases, each marked by distinct pottery styles. Period I (2300–2100 BCE) featured Savalda culture's elegant pottery in deep reds and pinks with painted motifs. In Period II (2100–1800 BCE), sturdier red wares appeared, some with Harappan script, showing a shift in style. Period III (1800–1600 BCE) introduced the Daimabad ware, along with various painted and burnished ceramics. Period IV (1600–1400 BCE) saw the rise of Malwa culture, known for black-painted red-orange and pink vessels, often inspired by earlier styles. Finally, Period V (1400–1000 BCE) brought the Jorwe culture, with smooth, earth-toned pottery and new forms like knobbed and perforated wares.
In brief, Daimabad has been an important archaeological site for more than 1500 years demonstrating continuous habitation during different periods and is also considered the southern most site having evidence of Late Harappan Culture.
