Shelter in Adichanallur damaged, treasures at weather's mercy
The New Indian Express Villupuram
|May 31, 2025
SEVERAL burial urns and pottery items excavated at Adichanallur archaeological site are facing the risk of irreversible damage as shelter covering a part of the C-site in the ASI-controlled area collapsed a few days ago due to strong winds. The trenches now stand exposed to the elements.
Excavation at the site is done by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). The site is spread across 125 acres on a mound at Adichanallur village located on the banks of the Thamirabarani river. Experts believe that the site could be 2,900 years old. The area is divided into three sites. The A-site has several urn burials, B-site has an onsite museum, and C-site has a number of urn burial trenches.
