A little below Tongo perches a small hamlet, Ulap. Close to the village is Ushakothi, the rook shelter. Above it is the ramparts of a late medieval fortification. The rock face standing perpendicular to the ground, beacons the traveller. The prickly path leads towards the forbidden rocks, which requires negotiating stiff gradients. Nestled close to an industrial area, with rampant mining activities, this rock shelter awaits the ravages of modern man like, an innocent undertrial at the gallows. Ushakothi provides a happy blend­ing of carvings and paintings. Colours used, are white and brick red, occurring separately or together in paintings. The patterns are ladderlike, triangular, circles in honeycomb shapes, wheel and broom. There are also figures resembling female genitals, and animals on the rock faces of Ushakuthi. These carvings  are similar to the patterns and characters of Vikramkhol. They are zigzag lines, circular brackets, dots, loops, and marks on cobrahood. There are some figures in carvings that defy any geometric design or depictions.

 The forms are animals, palm and geometrical patterns. In isolation there is a human figure. The late medieval fort indicates that this  area must have been the scene of battles  in the past. Even now rapid industrialisation in the vicinity has left its cruel marks over Ushakothi.
