Numerous prehistoric sites in the West Midnapore district are currently being excavated. These sites are significant in the history of Midnapore and the partition of Midnapore. Buddhism and Jainism seem to have had a significant effect on the area in the past. Samudragupta-issued coins have been discovered close to the town. This area was formerly a part of the Kalinga (prehistoric Odisha) kingdom. A portion of undivided Midnapore was included in the realms of Shashanka and Harshavardhana. The present study is undertaken to explore the archeological sites of undivided Midnapore district.
