Jagjivanpur, Archaeological site and State Protected Monument in Habibpur, India.

The excavation site contains multiple elevated mounds, including the five-meter-high Tulabhita mound, along with ancient Buddhist structural remains and artifacts.

The discovery of a copper plate inscription in 1987 provided the first evidence of Pala emperor Mahendrapaladeva's existence and documented land grants.

The site features remains of Nandadirghika-Udranga Mahavihara, a ninth-century Buddhist monastery with meditation cells, stupas, and ceremonial pathways.

Visitors can examine numerous artifacts from Jagjivanpur at the State Archaeological Museum in Behala, Kolkata, including bronze sculptures and terracotta seals.

The excavated Buddhist stupa measures 3.5 meters in height with a circumference of 19.63 meters and contains evidence of an internal hollow structure.
