Barabar Caves. India. A bomb shelter of the ancients? About 35 km northeast of Gaya (Bihar state), in the middle of an absolutely flat yellow-green plain, there rises a low rocky ridge about 3 km long.
In its central part there is a group of rocky hills known for its ancient man-made caves in India, which are called Barabar.
Most of the Barabar caves consist of two chambers, carved out of granite, with carefully polished interior surfaces and unique acoustics.
The first room is a large rectangular hall in which ministers gathered, and in the second - a small, round, domed one - religious rituals were performed. Perhaps there was a small stupa-like structure in the back room, but at the moment the rooms are empty. The accuracy and thoroughness of the manufacture of the premises is amazing. Smooth walls, correct geometry. The biggest mystery of the Barabar caves is the perfectly polished walls of the correct semicircular shape. The “ashoka step” leads to the caves by a dash-path made of rectangular notches, carved on the surface of the rocks at the same time as the caves themselves.
