Though many of the \*ghāts\* now in existence on the banks of sacred rivers may have had a long history, the archaeological evidence of \*ghāts\* is confined to only two sites—NĀGĀRJUNAKOṆḌA and YELLESWARAM, situated on the banks of the river Krishna, where they were used mostly for religious purposes.
