In the southern part of Eminabad lies the remains of an ancient mound, a testament to the passage of time. This particular mound, believed to be two thousand years old, once belonged to the illustrious Kingdom of Raja Rasalu, the younger brother of the renowned historical figure Pooran Bhagat.

Fascinatingly, the bricks used in the construction of many of Eminabad's old buildings were sourced from this very mound. In times past, this mound stood grandly, stretching across a kilometer in radial distance. However, over the course of a few decades, much of its elevated terrain has been flattened and repurposed as agricultural fields. Yet, traces of its former glory persist, with scattered debris and fragments of pottery dotting certain areas of the land.

Additionally, Eminabad was once graced with the presence of two other mounds on its outskirts. Sadly, the relentless passage of time has caused these mounds to fade into obscurity, and only a few individuals possess knowledge of their precise locations.
