Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The temple of Durga is located near Krushnaprasad village in a area called Nua Satanga and Motia in Cuttack district, Orissa, India. The temple is dedicated to Mahishamardini and Chamunda.The central icon which is worshipped is a four-handed goddess slaying Mahishasura. In her upper two hands she holds Shankha and Chakra, while the lower hands have a trident and a hand on the buffalo-headed demon. Several sculptures were discovered by the Archaeological Survey of India here which demonstrated that the shrine belongs to the era of Somavamsi rule during the 10th century. An image of Surya is worshipped here.
