Numaligarh is a town in the Golaghat district of Assam, India. It is situated at a distance of 32 km from Golaghat town. Historically it is associated with both Kachari and Ahom kingdom. After Ahom king Suhungmung annexed Numaligarh, he started to live with Kachari princess Numali and built a "garh" (fortification) around the place where they lived. However, only remains of that "garh" is found now. This town came into limelight because of the Numalgarh Refinery.
Deoparbat is a hillock housing stone carvings and ruins of temples from the 8th and 9th centuries. The main Shiva temple here was destroyed in a major earthquake in 1897. The archaeological site adjoins the Deopahar Reserve Forest and is close to Garampani Wildlife Sanctuary on National Highway 39. The stone temple was erected on a monolithic floor. The temple has a big ceiling slab engraved with a large lotus bearing a relief of Vidyadhara holding a scarf and a necklace by both hands. The vast range of sculptured stone blocks were curved out of Precambrian rocks.
