Before going on for a scientific speculation about the feasibility of the bridge, it must be noted that the current system of fossil tracing is inefficient in the fact that the dynamics of plate movements are not known precisely beyond a time domain (in order to trace the history). There is a huge shift in the interior layers of earth every time a pressure shoot in the core occurs and magma rises up to the crust. For instance if a civilization is destroyed by a natural calamity say about 100000 years back, the possibility of tracing it at the same geographical area is very difficult because of the layer shifts and stronger magma currents. Moreover archeologists don’t have a precise methodology for large area transient geographical fossil tracking. The archeologists claim only to the discovered ones within a few hundred meters depth. So just by finding few skeletons and predicting the possible age and characterizing the finding and finally generalizing it is not the right way. What happens to be the biggest loop-hole in the current system of prediction about the origin of the modern man is the non availability of complete information of fossil scatter area and crust changes. Just like the mismatch in the prediction and formation of tornadoes and hurricanes, which are chaotic, fossil studies are also in the same category. A careful rational analysis could say that just like the " Mans trip to moon " issue, which raised a lot of questions about the flag waving during implanting and the absence of a blast crater, one must also realize that we should not get carried away by localized fossil tracking. This is regarding the fossil-based theories of origins of man and its inefficiency. Now regarding the Ramayana bridge issue, there should be a detailed investigation on the bridge using shoal layer testing methods essentially with the help of NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF OCEANOGRAPHY OR ARCHEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF INDIA. It will be better if fossil trace based speculations cease and an open-minded search be carried out. This will reveal further details for a possible evidence.

Does this have something to do with the introduction of Neolithic Indo-Euorpean cheeses to the Indian Sub-continent?

It has nothing to do with that (Probably I didn't post it properly or you didn't read the article completely). I'm saying that the current localized fossil tracking methods are not efficient enough to predict the existence of an ancient civilization. Even if the bridge is 17.5 lakhs years old, there is no way by which it could be denied as was done by some scrap astrophysist (Published in Times of India). He was trying to speculate on the issue based on archeological findings linked with fossil studies saying that there was no human civilization 17 lakhs years back. Firstly, I'm suggesting that fossil theories cannot explain a possible human civilization more than 17 lakh years back which means modern man could have very well existed even at this period. Secondly, to know the exact details about the age of the bridge, a careful study of the shoal layers and coral reefs should be done with the help of government organizations.

I think it has something to do with the introduction of Neolithic Indo-Euorpean moose to the Indian Sub-continent.

If a demigod were to have actually come to earth,

why would he have monkeys and tigers break up rocks to

build a bridge to cross the straights. If he were able

to come down in the first place, why didn't he come down

on the other side in the first place....huuuuh?

The hari krishnas are just pissed because of airport security.

If you're refering to the "Sea Cheese", that's been shown to be a myth. It originated with a pair of drunken Burmese crab fishermen in 1932.

But seriously, what I'm saying, in a cheesy way, is that your post is more than a little cryptic. (Kinda like using white on white lettering.) I had to do some searching just to find out what the "Ramayana Bridge" is. Your post assumes that all readers know what you're talking about. A little background, or a link, would have helped. On a side note, the most useful hits from Google on the subject were to pages on FreeRepublic.com.

Have you ever tried getting a monkey through airport security? You'd have an easier time trying to sneak a wheel of Venezualan Beaver Cheese through customs!

Most likely it deals with the migration of prehistoric moose...

I concur. I would hasten to add that subductive processes in relation to clastic deposits of coagulated dairy protiens are often the mechanism behind such stratified formations as 'Port Wine Cheesespread, and other lesser known holiday food phenomena.

Dunno 'bout that, but I was wondering, what is the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow??

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´s Bridge is made of chain of shoals, c.18 mi (30 km) long.

The bridge´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 17,50,000 years ago and the bridge´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 17,00,000 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.

How much is 17,00,000 in a ten-base system?
