Guest guest Posted September 21, 2007 Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 http://kalyan97.wordpress.com/2007/09/21/870/ Rama Setu: scientists find remains of vana-nara 1.77 m. yrs. old “Writing on Wednesday in the journal Nature , the scientists described remains of three adults and one adolescent dating from about 1.77 million years ago, excavated at Dmanisi, about 88 kilometres southwest of the Georgian capital, Tbilisi .” 1.77 million years ago ! This date reverberates and echoes the tretayuga in Bharatiya cosmology tradition. Vaanara mentioned in Valmiki Ramayana are vana – nara (people in the forests). The vana-nara built the Rama Setu led by architects Nala and Neela. Considering that a rock-cut reservoir dated to over 4000 years ago has been found at Dholavira and that the grand anicut on River Kaveri built by Karikala Chola over 2000 years ago still stands as a monument to engineering skills of our ancestors, there is every reason to pursue researches into the historicity of Ramayana, an extraordinary cultural tradition received as social memory from generation to generation across many climes in the Hindumahaasaagara. Rama Setu is a monument of this Hindumahaasagara parivaar (Indian Ocean Community). The challenge of the present and future generations is to make this Indian Ocean Community a reality as was achieved constituting an European Community. Work can begin with Mekong (maa ganga) delta, Trans-Asian Railroad, Trans-Asian Highway and restoration of Angkor Wat and Prambanan hindu mandirams in Cambodia and Indonesia . Prambanan has a series of sculptural panels depicting Ramayana episodes. Rama is reality. We have to document this reality using multi-disciplinary studies such as the history of rice cultivation, palaeo-climate studies, geotectonic, geo-thermal studies in relation to plate tectonics evidenced by the Sunda thrust repeatedly causing earthquakes and tsunami-s in Bay of Bengal .

In fact it could be said that they looked more like 7 million year old Toumai from Chad than anything else yet found.A brilliant article by Rick Gore in the National Geographic of August 2002 gives a full account of the Georgian discovery. http://tinyurl.com/2mzmuw Take the Internet to Go: Go puts the Internet in your pocket: mail, news, photos more.
