The recently discovered bridge currently named as Adam's Bridge made of chain of shoals, c.18 mi (30 km) long, in the Palk Strait between India and Sri Lanka, reveals a mystery behind it. The bridge's unique curvature and composition by age reveals that it is man made. The legends as well as Archeological studies reveal that the first signs of human inhabitants in Sri Lanka date back to the a primitive age, about 17,50,000 years ago and the bridge's age is also almost equivalent. This information is a crucial aspect for an insight into the mysterious legend called Ramayana, which was supposed to have taken place in tretha yuga (more than 17,00,000 years ago). In this epic, there is a mentioning about a bridge, which was built between Rameshwaram (India) and Srilankan coast under the supervision of a dynamic and invincible figure called Rama who is supposed to be the incarnation of the supreme. This information may not be of much importance ! t o the archeologist s who are interested in exploring the origins of man, but it is sure to open the spiritual gates of the people of the world to have come to know an ancient history linked to the Indian mythology.

so what is it?
ReplyDeletewhy woudl it take them so long to find something like that
ReplyDeletehow the hell do you miss something that big? for that long?
ReplyDeleteIt was found more than 5 years ago, and most of the info on this article is widely open to debate as hardly anything is known about it.
ReplyDeleteYea, its been known for a long time.
ReplyDeleteThe "bridge" is actually close to a city named Ramesvaram, pretty close to what the myth says. You can actually see the "bridge" if you have Google Earth
ReplyDelete17,00,000 years ago
ReplyDeletewhat do you mean
is it 17.000 ?
More like 17 years. My and my buddy Mubinder built it while we were high on ganga.
ReplyDeleteThe year seems to be messed up. I read this somewhere else 2 years ago. It was dated 1,700,000 years ago.
ReplyDeletekinda like the "bridge of the gods" between washington and oregon. a natural bridge discovered thousands of years after it disappeared with a "legendary" background to help verify it once existed.
ReplyDeleteExperts say its made of bones from the early cavemen bodies.
ReplyDeleteI think it's cool. Not only does it reveal aspects of spirituality it also reveals early engineering. We look on ancient cultures as so primitive but some of them obviously owned house.
ReplyDeleteits obviously not man made. That bridge would have collapsed after 200 years. So this doesn't reveal anything about early engineering. And I wouldnt call a couple sticks with leaves over the top a "house."
ReplyDeletethis is a bull crap story. the bridge is either natural or built much later than "???17,50,000 years ago ???". even if they meant 1,750,000 years, the oldest homo-sapien fossil is only 160,000 y/o. ok, homo wasn't the only hominid, so this bridge must have been built by homo-habilis (who lived 2.4 - 1.6 mil y/a) if it is really 1,750,000 y/o. habilis was a little smarter than a clever chimp. its only tools were a hand ax (rock with a sharp side) and stone chips. a bridge is only needed to move vast amounst of stuff across water. since habilis didn't have much property, a raft would have been a better option for them and more to their abuility than an 18 mile bridge! did this build the bridge? you decide.
ReplyDeleteIdiot alert - "That bridge would have collapsed after 200 years". and what evidence do you have to support that theory? does everything magically disintegrate after 200 years, just like the great pyramids and stonehenge did? stay off of the internet if you're just going to spread your stupidity around, you don't deserve it.
ReplyDeleteThey just found out that its man made and there are so many typos in that paragraph. Someone could have hella just made this whole thing up hella stupid
ReplyDeleteI'm an aerial image compositer for Standard Mapping Services. I work mostly with images in the U.S. Gulf South where there is a lot of shoaling. This looks like natural shoaling to me. It's a great formation that's been known by the shipping industry for at least 150 years. No doubt it has inspired stories for a very long time.
ReplyDeleteSaying "hella": you're doing it wrong
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a big anaconda to me !!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, i think it's cool. Great.
