Dear Galilio, Extremely GOOD points you have made. I have seen a video taken of the Ramar Sethu, from a plane. My immediate reaction was, "It is too straight, purposeful, insofar as it connects the two shortest points in the land masses of the two countries." Yes, very old Tamil works, such as "Pura Nanooru" mention the Sethu. Taking all the literary evidence from Tamil sources and Valmiki together, we do have something that was, probably, "put together" by a large number of humans, under the leadership and guidance of a very capable person. Of course, it is a puzzle, how it could have been done in ancient times, without machinery of the sort we use today. In any case, that it is a "natural formation" is an explanation that seems unconvincing, at present.
