1908

HILL The hills of the Angul subdivision are a continuation of a SYSTEM chain of mountains which rise abruptly from the lower levels of the States of Narsinghpur and Daspalla on the south and from the bed of the Mahanadi at its south-western corner. [...] The Mahanadi rises in the Central Provinces and forms the boundary between Angul on the north and the Baud State on the south. [...] The beds of Gondwana age occurring in the north comprise the Mahadeva Kamthi Barakar and the Talcher divisions of which the division first named belongs to the Upper Gondwanas while the Kamthi (also known as Hingir) Barakar and Talcher divisions belong to the Lower Gondwanas. [...] In the Khondmals tigers frequent the wilder portion to the ;west of the subdivision where the villages are far apart and the population sparse; they are seldom heard of in the more thickly peopled areas to the east. [...] The *temperature in the hottest weather seldom rises above 102° in the shade and that only for a few weeks in The year ; and the nights are chilly making the use of a blanket almost throughout the year a necessity while in the cold weather a fire at night is indispensable.
