Thank you for the valuable information. I will put it to good use in a study I am undertaking concerning ancient cultures and civilisations not only in India, but Egypt and Mesopotamia as well as South America. Astro-Archeology I believe it is called.
Thank you Sir, can you share the blog or work's link where you shared my post.
