Excavation at Theriruveli
The Tamil Nadu Archaeology Department conducted an excavation[when?] at a site called 'Colony Thidal' in Theriruveli, under the supervision of A. Abdul Majeed. Nadu worked on this project with the assistance of N. Marxia Gandhi, R. Selvaraj, S. Santhalingam, and C. Chandravanan.[6]
This excavation consisted of six trenches, each measuring five by four metres (16 by 13 ft). The excavation revealed shreds of many types of wares, including, but not limited to, Northern Black Polished Ware, coarse-red ware, blank ware, black-and-red ware, grey ware, Rouletted ware, and russet-coated ware. Six inscribed shreds with Brahmi script were also recovered. The personal names Korran, Sattan, and Nedunkilli, appear on the shreds. Objects including lids, hopscotch, spouts, terracotta ring-stands, iron pieces, terracotta lamps, shell bangles, sawed conches, and carnelian beads, were also recovered.[6]
