Traces of human presence dating back some 1,000-1,200 years have been found in the world's largest coastal mangrove forest in southwest Bangladesh, according to local and foreign researchers.
The remains of the near-ancient buildings were discovered in five places within the Sundarbans forest, and various artefacts have also been found in forest areas up to 83 kilometres away.
These findings were revealed by a local independent researcher, Ism Azam.
