Prachin Shiv Mandir, Village-Salwan, Distt. Karnal

An ancient pond with a temple at this village is traditionally called as Dashashvamedha Tirth of Mahabharata period in Kurukshetra region. This Tirtha finds its mention in the Vamana Purana. Though at present, at this site, there are no such ancient remains which can be associated with the Mahabharata times. A temple and a pond built in late 18th or early 19th century AD represent the Tirth at present.
