The Gujarat Nexus Tracing Ancient Maritime Trade Routes and Their Modern Day Relevance
Keeladi excavation yields two carnelian beads, confirming Tamil country's trade links with western India. Found in an urn at a burial site in Konthagai, the beads were traced at 17.5 cm and 20 cm depths. One bead was etched with a wavy pattern and lines, 1.4 cm long and 2 cm wide.
The book is out, and available via Amazon, via the distributors Orient Blackswan, and other outlets too. Delighted to receive my author copies.
