What lies beneath THIS fort's egg shaped rock

The Thirumayam Fort, situated in the heart of Tamil Nadu is a proof to this region's rich history and exceptional architecture. It was constructed in 1687 by Vijaya Raghunatha Sethupathi, the Raja of Ramnad, and has witnessed centuries of history, battles, and secrets. This historical marvel encovers an unimaginable secret that makes Indian history and culture stand exceptionally apart from the historical cultures in the world. It is located in the town of Thirumayam, on the Pudukkottai-Karaikudi Highway,and the fort is a marvel of ancient engineering and a beacon for history enthusiasts.


One of the most surprising features of Thirumayam Fort is the massive egg-shaped rock upon which it sits. This rock is ten feet tall with a smooth, lustrous surface like an egg, it has attracted many visitors and locals for a long time. According to The dest of Gav on Rumble, a video platform, an earthquake that happened a few years ago cracked open the true mystery of this rock.
During the earthquake, a flaw appeared in the rock, and uncovered a perfectly carved door that had been effortlessly integrated into the rock's surface. This hidden door led to a secret chamber within the rock, and left everyone awestruck. The hollow chamber was made with utmost precision and clarity and also housed a Shiva Lingam, which is a symbol of divine energy.


The origin and purpose of this hidden chamber still remains a mystery. Some believe it was a place of worship and a sacred space where ancient rituals were performed. Others speculate that it might have been a hidden treasury or a place of refuge for the fort's defenders during times of siege. The mystery is heightened by the lack of inscriptions or artifacts within the chamber, leaving historians and archaeologists with more questions than answers.
