Telangana invites tenders to excavate megalithic Menhirs of Mudumal where ancient stones align with Sun
Telangana's archaeology department has issued tenders for the excavation of the Mudumal megalithic site, where upright stone pillars are thought to be positioned in line with sunrise and sunset at the summer and winter solstices. UNESCO's tentative listing notes the alignment could indicate an ancient observatory, prompting the state to seek experts for systematic study and preservation.
