Archaeological Survey of India, Guwahati Circle, Ambari, Guwahati – 781 001, Assam, India (Email: [email protected]) 2. Archaeological Survey of India, Excavation Branch – VI, Bangalore – 560 010, Karnataka, India (Email: [email protected], [email protected], snehamveera@ gmail.com) Received: 29 July 2018; Revised: 03 September 2018; Accepted: 18 October 2018 Heritage: Journal of Multidisciplinary Studies in Archaeology 6 (2018): 30‐72 Abstract: The recent excavations at Keeladi have yielded interesting findings pertaining to the early historic period in southern Tamil Nadu. This article gives a comprehensive account of the prominent results obtained from two season excavations. The occurrence of elaborate brick structures, channels, paved brick floors associated with grooved roof tiles, terracotta ring wells in association with roulette ware and inscribed Tamil – Brahmi pot sherds is a rare phenomenon in the early historic phase of Tamil Nadu. The absolute dating (AMS) of the site to some extent coincides with the general perception of the so‐called Sangam period. Keywords: Keeladi, Early Historic, Excavation, Structures, Rouletted Ware, Tamil Brahmi, Ring Well Introduction The multi‐faceted antiquarian remains of Tamil Nadu occupy a place of its own in the archaeological map of India. It was indeed Tamil Nadu that put a firm base for the beginning of archaeological research in India especially prehistoric archaeology with the discovery of the first stone tool at Pallavaram near Madras by Sir Robert Bruce Foote in 1863. Ever since this discovery, Tamil Nadu witnessed many strides in the field of archaeological research carried out by various organizations including Archaeological Survey of India till date.

  • The Hermits of Samanar Hills
    The hermits of Samanar Hills Devdutt Pattanaik hikes up a hill in Madurai to map its height in 2,500 years of Jain history in Tamil Nadu Devdutt Pattanaik hikes up a hill in Madurai to map its height in 2,500 years of Jain history in Tamil Nadu I had heard that the nose-ring of Meenakshi, a local manifestation of Parvati, goddess-queen of Madurai, is removed each night as she awaits her consort, Sundareswarar, Shiva, in her jasmine-filled bedchamber. “That ceremony starts only after 9pm,” my friend, an amateur historian, told me. He suggested we use our time to visit the Samanar Malai. Samanar means Jain in Tamil. It is derived from the Sanskrit shramana, which refers to all hermits, not just Jains, or more specifically those who prefer meditation and austerities to Vedic rituals in all matters spiritual. Malai is Tamil for hill. The Samanar stands in the village of Keezh Kuyil Kudi, just 15km outside Madurai, and my friend’s suggestion seemed like a perfect detour. So, after a quick lunch, we drove out of the city. Little did I know that going up and down this hill of hermits would be a journey through 2,500 years of Jain history. A statue of Tamil poet Manikkavasagar from the Pandya period. Photo: Wikipedia Commons As we passed rice fields, I remembered reading reports of recent excavations in the fields of Keezhadi, a village in Sivaganga district, near Madurai, by the Archaeological Survey of India that have revealed structures strikingly similar to those found in the cities of the 5,000-year-old Indus-Saraswati civilization.

  • Srivilliputhur-Megamalai Tiger Reserve and Vaigai River: Tamil Nadu
    Srivilliputhur-Megamalai Tiger Reserve and Vaigai River: Tamil Nadu drishtiias.com/printpdf/srivilliputhur-megamalai-tiger-reserve-and-vaigai-river-tamil-nadu Why in News The recently declared Srivilliputhur-Megamalai Tiger Reserve in Tamil Nadu will provide protection to Megamalai, the Vaigai’s primary catchment, in turn helping water levels to rise in the river. 1/3 Key Points About Vaigai River: Origin and Tributaries: It originates in the Western Ghats (Varushanad Hills). It travels through the Pandya Nadu region of Tamil Nadu. Its main tributaries are Suruliyaru, Mullaiyaru, Varaganadhi, Manjalaru, Kottagudi, Kridhumaal and Upparu. The Vaigai is 258 kms long and finally empties into the Palk Strait near the Pamban Bridge in Ramanathapuram district. Heritage River: The Vaigai was the river that flowed through the noted city of Madurai, the capital (4th-11th century CE) of the ancient and prosperous Pandya kingdom located in southern Tamil Nadu. The river finds a mention in Sangam literature dated to 300 before the Common Era. Significance: The river fulfils the drinking water requirement of five districts of Tamil Nadu namely Theni, Madurai, Ramanathapuram, Sivagangai and Dindigul. It also provides irrigation to 2,00,000 hectares of agricultural land. Rejuvenation of Vaigai: Its deterioration happened at the end of the 18th century when the British started deforesting the Megamalai region which acts as a major catchment for Vaigai. Consequently, the water flow in the river reduced gradually. Some 2,00,000 people died in this region during the Great Famine of 1876-77. Following the famine, the British Crown proposed diverting water from the Periyar river (Kerala) and feeding it to the Vaigai through a tunnel.

  • The Overview of Traditional Life of Nagarathars – the Historical Study
    International Journal of Research in Social Sciences Vol. 9 Issue 1, January 2019, ISSN: 2249-2496 Impact Factor: 7.081 Journal Homepage: http://www.ijmra.us, Email: [email protected] Double-Blind Peer Reviewed Refereed Open Access International Journal - Included in the International Serial Directories Indexed & Listed at: Ulrich's Periodicals Directory ©, U.S.A., Open J-Gage as well as in Cabell’s Directories of Publishing Opportunities, U.S.A THE OVERVIEW OF TRADITIONAL LIFE OF NAGARATHARS – THE HISTORICAL STUDY Dr.C.JEYAVEERAGANDHI,* Dr.C.JEYAVEERAGANDHI,** ABSTRACT Tradition has it that when the Chettiars migrated from Chola Nadu, they settled in and around a village called Ilayanthankudi in Pandya Nadu. And here the Pandya king granted to their care the village temple. Over the near decade or so, groups of Chettiars moved on from here to settle in other villages not far from their first settlement and, in time, eight other clusters of villages with Chettiar settlement had been established. To each of them the Pandya king granted a temple in perpetuity. The nine temples, thus, became the ‘family’ temples of the clusters and each cluster evolved as a subdivision of the Chettiars of what might be described as a fraternal clan. These fraternal members and their families are called pangalis. Once, when everyone knew each other, the pangalis bond was one of the strongest factors in keeping the Community cohesive. Over the years, pangalis have spread further and further and today, few know any but the pangalis in villages immediately neighboring theirs and more often only those pangalis with whom they share a common ancestor.
