''Note: National, provincial and district boundaries have changed considerably since 1908. Typically, old states, ‘divisions’ and districts have been broken into smaller units, and many tahsils upgraded to districts. Some units have since been renamed. Therefore, this article is being posted mainly for its historical value. ''

=Ratnagiri Hill=
Small hill in the Jajpur subdivision of Cuttack 
District, Bengal, situated in 20 39' N. and 86 20' E., on the north 
bank of the Keluo river On the top is a modem temple of Mahakala, 
near the gate of which are fine stone images r to 3^ feet high, probably 
of Tantnc origin On the east several elaboiately carved images have 
been dug up and erected. Farther east is a colossal sculpture, con- 
sisting of a male figure sitting on a lotus, below which are three rows 
of figures Two enormous heads of Buddha, with thick lips and flat 
noses, have been dug out, and there can be little doubt that other 
images of great antiquarian interest are still lying buried Local 
tradition ascribes these monuments to Vasukalpa Kesan, the king who 
is said to have built the monuments on Naltigiri hill.
