Sambalpur district, Administrative district in Northern division, India
Sambalpur district extends across 6,702 square kilometers in western Odisha, with dense forests covering more than half of its territory.
The district functioned as a major diamond trading center until the early 1600s, with mentions of its existence in Ptolemy's writings from the 2nd century.
The district produces Sambalpuri sarees, traditional handwoven textiles that display patterns representing the local artistic heritage of Odisha.
The district maintains connections through a network of railways and roads, linking its capital city Sambalpur to other major urban centers in Odisha.
Archaeological discoveries near Kuchinda reveal stone tools from the Paleolithic period, indicating human presence in this region since ancient times.
