A sculpture of a lion was found during excavation for the controversial heritage corridor project in Puri, which could date back to the Ganga dynasty, the Archeological Survey of India (ASI) said on Tuesday.
The East Ganga Dynasty had ruled Kalinga, the ancient name of Odisha, from the early fifth century to the early 15th century.
The sculpture was found on the premises of the Emar Mutt near the 12th-century Jagannath Temple on Monday.
