- The recently concluded fifth phase of archaeological excavation at Keeladi has unearthed a new find of terracotta pipes.
- These pipes are ‘unique’ among all terracotta pipes found at other excavation sites in Tamil Nadu.
- They were found horizontally decked one above the other and they might have been used for different purposes.
- A pipeline was formed by firmly fitting a series of 10 terracotta pipes.
- In one of the pipelines a lid was found which might have been used as a filtering device of water or some other liquid.
- The lid could have also been used to prevent the entry of reptiles.
