THE AMAZING SIMILAR MEGALITHS IN INDIA AND LAOS


Both the above megaliths have an unusual architecture. These are columned structures with sharp vertical sides and holes at their top. These two megaliths are placed hundreds of miles apart. Archaeology has no name for such a megalith in India.



This is Laos. Strangely there is a similarity between the above shown megaliths with holes at their top in India and the one ones of Laos known as Jar Megaliths. However there are differences; the Laos ones comprise both the columned and the circular type but that of India houses only the columned types. The Laos megaliths as in the above photograph not only have holes at their top as that of India but unlike that of India these are hollow in the middle.
