Hi all of you,

I post this just to let you know, I got just about the following today from a friend:

NASA Images Find 1,750,000
Year Old Man-Made Bridge
The Hindustan Times
10-10-2

WASHINGTON (PTI) -- The NASA Shuttle has imaged a
mysterious ancient bridge
between India and Sri Lanka, as mentioned in the
Ramayana. The evidence, say
experts matter-of-factly, is in the Digital Image
Collection. The recently
discovered bridge, currently named as Adam's Bridge
and made of a chain of
shoals, 30 km long, in the Palk Straits 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. Legend as well as
Archeological studies reveal
that the first signs of human inhabitants in Sri
Lanka date back to the
primitive age, about 1,750,000 years ago and the
bridge's age is also almost
equivalent.

Space images taken by NASA reveal a mysterious
ancient bridge in the Palk
Strait between India and Sri Lanka. The recently
discovered bridge currently
named as Adam&laqno;s Bridge is made of chain of
shoals, c.18 mi (30 km)
long. The bridge&laqno;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 1,750,000 years ago and the
bridge&laqno;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
tredha yuga (more than 1,700,000 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 to the
archeologists 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.
