The Elephanta Caves are a complex of Hindu caves, predominantly dedicated to the cult of the god Shiva, located on Elephanta Island, in Mumbai Harbor.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the caves are believed to have been carved between the 5th and the 6th century CE during the Kalachuri dynasty.
There is, however, considerable debate on the age of the caves and the means by which they were hollowed out of the solid basalt rock, with some claiming the caves may be well over 10,000 years old.
