Megalithic Cists and Cairn, Stone circles / Megalithic Burial Sites at Echchur ( Eaichur ), Sastrapakkam, Kanchipuram District, Tamil Nadu.

The visit to this Megalithic cist and Cairn, Stone circles at Echchur (Eaichur), in Kanchipuram District,  was made on 05th October 2022, along with Archaeological Survey Of India (ASI) Excavation sites at Vadakkupattu in Kanchipuram District.


This is one of the ASI-protected monuments without fencing in a vast area on the east side of a small hill.  This burial site was used by the Stone Age people between 4000 BCE to 2000 BCE. No Cist was found inside the Cairn Stone circles. Most of the Stones circles are disturbed and stones are taken out. More than 100 stone circles are found in this monument.
