A mysterious ancient bridge in the Palk Strait

IS IT ADAM'S BRIDGE OR RAMA'S BRIDGE ?

a mysterious ancient bridge in the Palk Strait

Introduction :


A Bridge made by the allies of God Rama built in course of winning a War against the Evil . His companions carried limestone and formed the RAMA'S bridge in the ancient times .

Description :

Rama's Bridge is a chain of limestone shoals, between the islands of Mannar, near northwestern Sri Lanka, and Rameswaram, off the southeastern coast of India. This bridge is 48 km long and separates the Gulf of Mannar from the Palk Strait

It was reportedly passable on foot as late as the 15th century until storms deepened the channel.


THEORY :


The names Rama's Bridge originate in Hindu mythology. According to the Hindu epic Ramayana the bridge was constructed at Rama's request by his allies. The bridge was supported on floating sand rocks but the gods were said to have later anchored the rocks to the sea bed, thus creating the present chain of rocky shoals. It was said to have helped Rama to reach Sri Lanka to rescue his wife Sita from the demon king (Asura) called Ravana, who was then the ruler of Lanka.
Some Hindu groups claim that the bridge is evidence that events narrated in the Ramayana epic actually took place and cite NASA's imagery of it as proof of their claims .


Contraversy & Fact sheet :

NASA said the mysterious bridge was nothing more than a 30 km long, naturally-occuring chain of sandbanks called Adam's bridge. Hess said his agency had been taking pictures of these shoals for years. Its images had never resulted in any scientific discovery in the area.


The Internet story further claimed "archaeological studies reveal that the first signs of human inhabitants in Sri Lanka date back to…about 1.75 million years ago" as does the age of the bridge. This, in turn, matched the age when the events of the Ramayana took place.

At least three ship channels have been dug through Adam's Bridge without any evidence of manmade construction. The sandbanks are not at a greater depth, never being more than 3 or 4 feet at high tide. Geologists believe the sandbank did at one time rise above sealevel.
Temple records suggest it was submerged by a violent storm as recently as 1480.

Crop circles are geometrical formations of flattened crops found in many countries but mainly in England. They have been found in wheat, barley, canola, rye, corn, linseed and soy.
The phenomenon itself entered the public consciousness in its current form after notable appearances in England in the late 1970s. Various explanations were put forward to explain the phenomenon, which soon spread around the world.

In 1991, two men, Doug Bower and Dave Chorley, revealed that they had been making crop circles in England since 1978 using planks, rope, hats and wire as their only tools. Circlemakers a UK-based arts collective founded by John Lundberg have been creating large scale complex crop circles since the early 1990s.

Early examples of this phenomenon were usually simple circular patterns of various sizes, which led some people to speculate that it was a natural phenomenon. But after some years, more and more elaborate and complex geometric patterns have emerged.

Later formations, those occurring after 2000, appear to be based on other principles, natural sciences and mathematics designs, including fractals. Many crop circles have fine intricate detail, regular symmetry and careful composition.

Elements of three-dimensionality became more frequent, culminating in spectacular images of cube-shaped structures.

After the public admission of the original creators, crop circle activity skyrocketed. Each new design sought to be more complex than earlier designs. Today crop circle designs have increased in complexity to the point where they have become an art form in and of themselves.
