À propos de ce contenu audio
Step onto the sun-baked banks of the Vaigai River and walk straight into a historical debate that is still unfolding. The Keeladi excavation site in Tamil Nadu reveals an urban settlement dating to at least the 6th century BCE, supported by radiocarbon dating of charcoal samples and stratigraphic analysis conducted by the Archaeological Survey of India and the Tamil Nadu State Department of Archaeology. Brick structures, ring wells, drainage systems, Tamil-Brahmi inscriptions, and everyday objects such as beads and spindle whorls point to a literate, craft-driven society thriving independently of North Indian urban centres. Visiting Keeladi is not just sightseeing; it is witnessing how new archaeological evidence is reshaping our understanding of early South Indian civilization and the deep antiquity of Tamil culture.
