You ask --Why do my countrymen, who are in a constant pursuit of better knowledge, believe that an army of monkeys built an engineering marvel? Answer: They were not monkeys.They were like the Australoids and were strong well built men with very dark complexions because of the harsh sun in the south. They were mainly meat eaters and probably had big upper teeth and must have looked different from Shri Ram%u2019s men who came from the north. Later day story tellers depicted them as vanaras or monkeys and artists drew faces to look like a monkey. Like that of Shri Hanuman. It is like Harbajjan calling Symonds a monkey.
