Travel Tips Of Sekta Archaeological Museum
Khongjom, Manipur, India
The Sekta Archaeological Museum, also known as Sekta Kei, is a unique "living museum" that protects a significant excavation site. Discovered in the early 1990s, this site revealed burial mounds belonging to the Proto-Meitei tribes. The museum is built over the actual excavation area, allowing visi tors to see the burial layers and the artifacts exactly where they were found. It provides a rare glimpse into the funerary customs of ancient Manipur, where the dead were buried with secondary items like copper, iron, and semi-precious stones. The findings date back to the late centuries BC and early AD, filling a massive gap in the historical timeline of the region. There are six burial mounds identified in total, though only one is fully excavated and showcased. The museum serves as an educational hub for students and researchers from across the country. Walking through the site feels like stepping back two thousand years. The surrounding Sekta village is peaceful and reflects a traditional agrarian lifestyle, making the visit a holistic cultural experience:
