Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Lokanatha Siva Temple also Amunha Deula is an 11th-century AD temple in Bhubaneswar (Lat.20°14’26"N., Long.85°50’05"E., Elev.71 ft) in the state of Odisha, India. It represents a proto type of Lingaraja in a miniature form. Lokanatha Siva temple is located in front of the Lingaraja temple in the south eastern corner across the road and adjacent to Lingaraja Temple Police Station in Old Town, Bhubaneswar. Until 1972 the temple was buried from all sides up to the bandhana portion, giving an impression as if the temple had no entrance. Hence people called it Amuha deula. In 1972 Debala Mitra conducted an excavation in front of the northern wall and exposed the entrance. The sanctum was empty. However, on the basis of the local traditions and the sculptural embellishment on the outer wall it was ascribed to Lord Siva. It is now known both as Lokanatha Siva and Amuha deula. People ascribe the temple to the Kesharis (Somavamsis). Except the entrance all other sides it is buried up to the bandhana.
