Tuman is a small village situated 10 km away from Katghora, 30 km away from the district headquarters. According to historians, Tuman was the capital of the Haihaya dynasty. An ancient Shiv temple can be found here, and is believed to have been built during the reign of Kalchuri (about 11 AD) by King Ratnadev I. This photograph shows the remains of this rich history. Our government and people must step in to save this neglected heritage.
