Palakkad: In a groundbreaking archaeological discovery, the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) has uncovered over 110 megalithic structures near Malampuzha Dam in Kerala. These ancient burial sites, constructed using massive, uncut stones without mortar or cement, are believed to date back to the Neolithic and Bronze Ages.
Megalithic structures, commonly used as burial chambers, offer a glimpse into the prehistoric cultural and funerary traditions of early civilizations. This remarkable find is expected to provide invaluable insights into the lives, beliefs, and practices of the ancient communities that once thrived in Kerala.
Archaeologists are now conducting detailed studies to establish the precise age and historical significance of the site. The discovery is poised to enhance heritage conservation efforts and deepen our understanding of Kerala’s rich and ancient past.
