In Keonjhar district, is Sitabinj where  paintings have been executed on the ceiling of a huge boulder called Ravanchhaya. Sitabinj depicts the procession scene of a King or royal dignitary riding a caparisoned elephant proceeded with the attendant, horse riders, soldiers on march, holding shafts and banners and followed by another female attendant. The painted inscription has been read as that of king Dishabhaja.

          A great deal of the painting  has   faded. But from the remnants one can notice the fleshy and bulky body of the elephant marching with grandeur, the powerful horses with bold steppings, as well the soldiers on foot advancing with vigour. The striped skirt of the female attendant, her ornaments  and the casket she carries are reminiscent of Ajanta murals.

          The continuity of the mural tradition of Orissa gets a big jolt after Sitabinj, because for several centuries we do not find any evidence of painting in pursuance of Sitabinj style which was made in 8th century.
