Sondani, Archaeological monument near Mandsaur, India
Two monolithic pillars stand at Sondani, reaching 40 feet in height with a girth of 3.5 feet and weighing 200 tons each.
King Yasodharman constructed these pillars in 528 AD to commemorate his victories over various opponents, including the powerful Hunas.
The pillars contain Sanskrit inscriptions written in north Indian Brahmi script by poet Vasula, documenting the achievements of the ancient rulers.
The archaeological site is located 4 kilometers from Mandsaur city along the Mahu-Nimach National Highway, making it accessible to visitors.
A double-headed stone lion sculpture was found near the pillars, believed to be the original crowning element of one monument.
