A brick pit, probably belonging to the time of Manipur's Maharaj Chandrakirti (1850-1886), measuring about 4 ft in depth has been found close to Kangla Santhong (gate) here.
Manipur State Archaeology is now making efforts to determine the origin of the pit and the actual period it belongs to, official sources said on Tuesday.

The strange pit was discovered at a site of Kangla Pat where its stone pitched retaining wall is currently undergoing renovation in view of the upcoming Sangai Festival 2015 .
Officials said the pit was found just 130 mt from the Kangla gate.
They said this pit probably belongs to the period in Manipur ruled by Chandrakirti Maharaj.
The renovation work at the site has been halted as the State Archaeology Department is preparing to find out unknown location.
