If we cannot prove something sceintifcally that does not mean it is not true. It could be due to lack of knowldge or limitations of technology.
During the times of Ramayana, things like paper and writing instruments were not invented, nor were the means available to preserve the manuscripts. The knowledge was passed from one to another verbally and through folklore.
The point is, if we cannot prove something that does not mean it is not true.
Just think about about Physics what was said to unknown 50 years back is proven today. Quantum Physics is a glaring example.
Therefore let us not destroy the evidence, if that happens there will be nothing to prove even if knowledge or science gets more advanced.

what is the proof that DMK founder Periyar was lived? photographs? if so before the invention of photography what ever happened on this planet earth was false/
the secret behind Ramyana is it occured millions of years ago and our christian west discovered this earth around them just two thousand years back? so they can not imagine the human history millions old antoher proof for the millions years old is the ramayana is the only ancient text in the world which interacted with Apes in the process of last staghe of evolution! Thats great!this is the only proof for its historical proof. Because some one to write a mythological story he would not have imagined interaction with apes as he would not have any knowledge of evolutions and he would not have even imagined that way.
hence Ramayana is the true history of mankind besides its holy sentiments it is a testimony of human anthropology

You need to produce video footage of Ram, else they wont believe you. Same doesnt hold for the virgin birth when we can easily guess what was the truth.
Did they ever know what animals were uncivilized europeans hunting 7000 years back.
