REVISED LIST OF ANTIQUITIES IX CHICACOLE TAI.UQ. 153 
erected over three images, said to have been washed dovm 
in a flood ; no known inscription. 
BuraviUi. — Eight-and-a-half miles north-east of Chi- 
cacole. A temple erected some 200 years ago by " Gajapati 
Maharajah " ; no known inscriptions. 
KaUiigapatam. — Situated at mouth of Vamsadhara river. 
The supposed ancient capital {Kalingauagara) of the kingdom 
of Kalinga ; remarkably barren of objects of antiquarian 
interest. It is said that the ancient city lies beneath the 
sea, and that masses of masonry are sometimes washed up 
by the waves ; but this statement should be received with 
caution, as facts do not seem to bear it out. A low mound 
near the present town, now traversed by a high road and 
partly appropriated as a cemetery, is more probably the site 
of the ancient town. The country immediately surrounding 
this mound is low, and I am of opinion that the mound 
itself was at one time enclosed by an extensive moat. The 
mound is being rapidly dug away and used for road-making. 
In composition it is a mixture of fine fragments of bricks, 
tiles, and country pottery, bound together by a blackish soil, 
and remarkably free from stones of large size. Small gold 
coins, of two sizes, are found upon the surface of this mound 
after heavy rain, by which they are washed out. The 
smaller coins are very tiny, being no larger than a chilly 
seed. The larger ones are about twice this size. The writer 
has a number in his possession, two of which he has succeeded 
in identifying as coins of the Kalinga rajahs. They bear 
the seal of these kings, a Nandi. The other coins seem to be 
of various countries. 
About three-quarters of a mile to the south-west of this 
mound is another of less circumference but greater height, 
called Jagatti-metta, apparently the site of an ancient 
temple, though no remains are now visible. I am inclined 
to think, from the conformation of the ground, that this 
second mound was at one time within the limits of the 
ancient town.
