The site of ancient Kishkindha or Kishkindhipura as known from inscriptions, was the capital of the Guhila dynasty ruling in the seventh-eighth centuries. An undated inscription mentions two names of Padda and Kadachhi, probably of the same dynasty. The site has recently yielded Saiva sculptures of green diorite schist, similar to those known from Samalji and stylistically assignable to circa  sixth-eighth centuries A.D.  A modern temple has been built at the site recently.
