Archaeological excavations of this ancient mound during the years 1998-99 to 2000-2001 have brought to light a colossal image of Surya. The image isfound installed within a brick built temple. The deity shown in standing posture holds lotuses as usual in both the hands. Stylistically the image can be dated back to c.13th century AD. Further excavation has revealed ruins of eight small brick temples. A crystal Sivalinga believed to be fixed on a yonipitha is also found lying within another small shrine of the complex.  A few mutilated stone sculptures of later period are found near the site.
