Megaliths, Naduvil, Sreekandapuram, Velam, Kannur, Northern Kerala
This paper tries to unfold some of the major iron-age megalithic burials of northern Kerala, Kannur. There is an existence of many megalithic sites like Naduvil, Sreekandapuram, Velam, Ezilode, Korom, Churathottukar, Tachankundu, Kottakunnu, Kurishumukku, Matilda, Chengal, Trikott, Kozummal, Onakunnu etc in Kannur. This region is highly connected with the megalithic culture as proven by archaeological evidence. But very least attention is given to these sites as compared to the explorations in southern parts of Kerala. The burials that are discovered here are quite different. These sites are closely connected to the Pazayagadi river belt. This gives an advanced level of living culture along with settled agricultural practices. The major archaeological remains from this region include Thoppikal, Kodakal, menhir, urn burials, stone circles, cist, dolmens etc. This study tries to deal with some major sites like Naduvil, Sreekandapuram, and Velam.
