Descripción del sitio
Aurangabad is situated in a valley watered by the river Dudhna between the Sihyachal and Satara range of hills. The old name of Aurangabad is Khirki which means a ‘window’ or ‘entrance’. The Aurangabad caves (19°55’; 75°30’) remained unknown for a long time. Dr. Bradley gave an account of these caves in a report to the Nizam Government in 1850. Dr. James Burgess described the caves extensively in Vol. III of the Reports of the Archaeological Survey of Western India during 1875-76. Brought by to the TripsGuru.com
