A rainwater harvesting project by the Koduvayur grama panchayat in Kerala led to the discovery of numerous megalithic urn burials on Kundlikkad hill.
A megalith is a large stone structure or monument from prehistoric times, often used in burials or ceremonial sites.
These monuments, found mainly in the Deccan Plateau, the northeastern regions, and parts of South India, include dolmens, cairn circles, and menhirs.
Dolmens are burial chambers made of upright stones covered by a large capstone.
Cairn circles are stone formations used as grave markers, while menhirs are tall, upright stones often placed in rows
