Muniyara at Marayoor Kerala
Muniyara is part of Marayoor which is 40 km from Munnar in Idukki district.
It is a region that fascinates anthropologists and archaeologists from around the world, who throng there to research and observe its legendary Dolmenoid cist remnants belonging to the Megalithic Age. These were burial chambers, made of four stones, placed on edges and covered by a fifth one called the cap stone. Dolmenoids contain several burial chambers, others have a quadrangle scooped out in laterite and lined on the sides with granite slabs. These are also covered with cap stones. The Marayoor area in Idukki district is famous for for its natural sandalwood forests and pre-historic rock paintings.

Kerala In Stone Age
...................
Archaeological studies have identified many Mesolithic, Neolithic and Megalithic sites in Kerala. These findings have been classified into Laterite rock-cut caves (Chenkallara), Hood stones (Kudakkallu), Hat stones (Toppikallu), Dolmenoid cists (Kalvrtham), Urn burials (Nannangadi) and Menhirs (Pulachikallu). The studies point to the indigenous development of the ancient Kerala society and its culture beginning from the Paleolithic age, and its continuity through Mesolithic, Neolithic and Megalithic ages. However, foreign cultural contacts have assisted this cultural formation.

MUNIYARA @Bankalam !!! 2000 YEARS OLD MYSTERIOUS CHAMBER
A megalithic chamber known as Muniyara which was discovered at Thekkan Bankalam near Nileshwaram,Kasargod Dist. According to archeologists and historians, this Muniyara might be 2000 years old. It has resemblance with other Muniyaras discovered in various places in the district. Compared to other Muniyaras, it is larger and also has a stone pillar in the middle portion.
I am not a historian,archaeologist or researcher in these areas and just visited this valuable monument and presented my own thoughts by reference. Research scholars in this area can oppose and correct my thoughts if there is any wrong statement. As this is a pre historical monument ,I think we can explore more details.

Muniyara | Ancient house in kerala #Exploring_Idukki
Also called Muniyaras, these dolmens belong to the Iron Age. These dolmenoids were burial chambers made of four stones placed on edge and covered by a fifth stone called the cap stone. Some of these Dolmenoids contain several burial chambers, while others have a quadrangle scooped out in laterite and lined on the sides with granite slabs. These are also covered with cap stones. Dozens of Dolmens around the area of old Siva temple (Thenkasinathan Temple) at Kovilkadavu on the banks of the River Pambar, and rock paintings on the south-western slope of the plateau overlooking the river have attracted visitors. Apart from the dolmens of Stone Age, several dolmens of Iron Age exist in this region especially on the left side of river Pambar as is evident from the usage of neatly dressed granite slabs for the dolmens. At least one of them has a perfectly circular hole of 28 cm diameter inside the underground chamber. This region has several types of dolmens. Large number of them are overground with about 70–90 cm height. Another type has a height 140–170 cm. There is an overground dolmen with double length up to 350 cm. Fragments of burial urns are also available in the region near the dolmens. This indicates that the dolmens with 70–90 cm height were used for burial of the remains of people of high social status. Burial urns were used for the burial of the remains of commoners. The dolmens with raised roofs might have been used for habitation of people. Why some people lived in the cemeteries has not been satisfactorily explained.
