This district is extreme South west part of ancient Magadh .All the books relating “Treta Yug and Dwapar Yug”  relate to Lord Sri Ram and Lord Sri Krishna respectively find their own description. The Hindus all over the world come here to pay Pind(Pious Offer)to their ancestors .During the course of “Pind-Dan” first Pind is given on the bank of river Pun-Pun .River Punpun has been called in the Puran as Ardhgang ( Half of river Ganga ) .So it is very much difficult to write an exhaustive history of this region. Each particle of this region has got its own history. Mere glimpse of the same is being given here. The sages like Bhrigu practiced penance here .The deity of sage Bhrigu, Bhawani is situated at the junction of river Pun-pun and Madar. The statue of Bhawani is still in existence. The nose of the said statue is broken .As such, the people of that region call her Nakti Bhawani.The celebrated book of Indian Astrology Bhrigu Sanhita was written there. This district remained taposthali (Penaut-place) of sage Chyawan.Sage Chyawan invented Aryuvedic Medicine Chyawanprash .His deity Lord Shiva is still in existence. That Shivaling is made of black Sapphire. The people of this region call him Baba Dudheshwar Nath. The Ashram of sage Chyawan is still a remainder Akhand Dhuni (A place where the Saint used to continuously burn a log) of sage Chyawan is still in existence, Where fire was not lit again. The Samadhi of Bal Yogi is also in front of Akhand Dhuni. People of this region still come in front of that, Samadhi and sit there to settle their disputes .They believe that the soul of the said yogi is still alive and he gives justice. As such the people of this region take an oath before him and leave their disputes to Balyogi.The people of this region have faith that justice will be done sure. Thus disputes are settled here ever in the present age. There is a Sun temple of konark style in the district .It is said that this temple was founded by Raja Ayel .Who was a Tretayugi King. He was also an ascendant of Lord Sri Rama .The old statue of the Sun was broken by Mogul rulers during their regime. The statue of trikal Surya has been established. The People of this region pay oblation to him especially on Sunday; Suryashasthi of month Chaitra, during the Adra Nakchhatra and on Suryashasthi of month of Kartik of Hindu Calendar .There is also a Suryakund in the south of temple where people pay Ardha to the setting and rising Sun. People of this district and nearby districts treat Sun god as PRATYACHHA DEVTA (Visible God), From whom we human being and all creatures get power .There is myth ( Folk tale) that the descendent of Maharana Pratap. Raja Fateh Narayan Singh, who was a leper, came here in course of hunting to quench the thirst of his horse, he fell in that “kund” (Pond) .It is said that he became cure of it. His disease of leprosy disappeared. There is also a folk tale that Lord Brahma Started to construct three temples in this region in a single night. Two of them, the temples of Deo and Umga were completed, but third one of Devkund could not be completed, because it became morning, and the crow began to speak .The hill of Umga is full of temples, where so many statues of different gods and goddesses are scattered. In these days, this district has become the antique paradise of smugglers. They steal the valuable idols from this region and sell abroad at fantastic price.

Modern History
The history of Aurngabad is a part of history of the ancient Magadh which included the undivided district of Patna and Gaya .Three-forth of India’s early history is the history of Magadh and the area which forms the present district of Aurangabad was a proud sharer of this glory .Although it was a part of the Mahajanpad of Magadh,yet it had its distinct racial and cultural character.Froming part of the first vast the territorial empire of Magadh, perhaps the distinction of being ruled by Bimbisara and Ajatsatru and later on by Chandragupta Maurya and Ashoka .The river Sone has been accepted by the authorities as having been western boundary of the Magadh empire. After the downfall of the Mauryas, this area remained under sovereignty of Sungas and Kushans. Harshavardhan also ruled over this land. During his regime, Celebrated books of Sanskrit literature KADAMBARI AND HARSHCHARITRA were written by Banbhatta, whose birth place Pritakuta Parwat, village piroo at present falls in the territory of the district. So many manuscripts written on Bhojpatra and Talpatra of that regime are being preserved village piroo in the Banbhatta Pustakalya of the same village. When pal dynasty of Bengal rose to power, its sway was over this area but it lasted for a short period. The prominent feature of this region is that, although it was ruled by Ashoka, the grate Magadh Emperor, it culturally continued to enjoy its own identify.Even during the climax of his regime, this region resisted the spread of Buddhism. Later on the people of Rajputana came here to offer pind “Dan” to their ancestors at Gaya.They saw the natural beauty of this region which attracted them. They settled here, seeking their place of convenience. The rulers of Deo, Mali, Pawai, Chandragarh and Siris were the descendants of those Rajput warriors. Due to their militant Character, they resisted the domination of the Sultanate Mughals and Britishers. Before this region came under the control of Moghul Sultanate, it remained under the control of Sen and Garhwal Kings. During the regime of Sher Shah, the area became strategically important .It formed a part of the Rohtas Sirkar.The Afghan ruler built the famous Grand Trunk Road (Now N.H.No.-02) .After death of Sher Shah; it came under imperial domain of Akbar. The Afghan upsurge in the area was suppressed by Todarmal and the area between Sherghati and Rohtas was brought under the Mughal Empire. But the glimpses of Afghan architecture are still visible in the old buildings of this region. During regime of Aurangabad his Subedar Daud Khan Kuraishi founded the town Daudnagar after defeating Garhwal King of Palamu. After downfall of Moghul Empire, the area came under control of zamindars of Deo, Kutumba, Mali, Pawai,Chandrgarh and Siris.The rebellious character of the zamindars of Siris,Kutumba and Pawai,is the proud-preserve in the history of this area. The first rebellion against the British authority belongs to Raja Narayan Singh of Reyasat Pawai,Whose forefathers said to be the descendents of Prithwi Raj Chauhan.The veteran freedom fighter Veer Kunwar Singh had his personal relationship in the family of Deo State .Some people say his Sasural was in that family.

A ferocious battle took place at both the bank of river Sone, where thousands of Britishers and soldiers of Raja Narayan Singh were killed. The Sepoy Mutiny of Danapur and Benaras created Commotion in the whole area .It remained for the whole year of 1857 .In the next year, the British Government took measures to tighten their grip over administration .District of Gaya was seperated from Patna District, and Aurangabad was made Sub Division in the year 1865 .It remained part of Gaya District till 1973 Mr.Stement was first S.D.O of Aurangabad Sub-Division. During the freedom struggle, it can be imagined that, how much torture was given to the participants. Commissioner Stanton passed an order of attachment of properties on recommendation of Mr.H.Davis.Deputy Magistrate, Sherghati, of the following landlords:- (a) Bhanu Pratap Singh of Mali. (b) Bal Govind Singh of Village Barhara. (c) Jagu Singh of Village Urdanadih. (d) Jagdamb Sohori of Manaura. (e) Gulaman Khan of Village Koraypur.

The Contribution of Bihar Bibhuti Anugrah Narayan Singh is well known to all .The veteran revolutionaries of that age got shelter here.
