Rating: Misleading — Click this image to see the complete fact check in video Or Read the below article. ****************************************************************** A photo showing a Hindu structure carved out of a single rock is being shared on social media platforms, with a claim that it was a 5,000-year-old rock structure from Rajasthan. See the claim below: When we searched, we found that the claim was shared on X a few years ago with a claim that it was a temple carved out of a single rock, without giving out the place. Found in India, 5000 years old, made from a single rock pic.twitter.com/gbMlfYhrJN — Ancient History, Mystery (@MinhNguyen51050) October 7, 2023 Similar posts can be found here and here. FACT CHECK To begin with, we searched the image on Google Reverse Image Search and found several research papers and news reports about the temple made out of a single rock. But the location is not Rajasthan but Tamil Nadu and temple is called the Vettuvan Koil, a single rock-cut temple located in Kalugumalai, Thoothukudi district of Tamil Nadu and it was estimated to have been built in 8the century AD and not 5000-year-old temple as claimed in all these social media posts. Vettuvan Koil was built around 760-800 AD as a monolithic temple that features a Dravida vimana emerging from the rectangular rock. Hence, this viral image is of an 8th-century monolithic temple of Tamil Nadu, not Rajasthan and also it’s not 5,000 years old as claimed.
