Archaeological excavation had been carried out in Lembah Bujang since 1845. Thousands of artefacts have been discovered here, of which some 1000 pieces are on display at the Lembah Bujang Archaeological Museum. The first temple ruin in Lembah Bujang was discovered in the 1840′s. It is called a candi, pronounced “chan-dee”, a name that came from “chandika”, after the wife of the Hindu deity Shiva (also written Siva). .. source
