Dear Swamins
Ref : Chozha Nadu Divya Desams Photos
The presentation of photos were Execellent .Especially with the Chariot
Tiruvezalkoorru Erukkai in Car form was best .
The elephants pulling the thayar sannadhi was a treat to watch!
If I remember correct in 1976-77 in Srirangam Excavations were carried out
near Thayar sannidhi at srirangam and the excavations revealed a similar
structure shown in your photos .Subsequently the the Thayar sannnidhi
exacavations again recovered as it was posing a problem to the very foundations
as the the structures were quite deep So it was covered up facilitating
devotees to have clean access to temple and avoiding climbing stair case like
steps in front of the Mettu Azhazingar Sannadhi.
But I do not rember what happend at that time in Srirangam as I was busy in
trichi with my office work.
Probably learned elders may be able to say why the excavation was done and
subsequently closed.
