Second centuary
When Karigala chozan ruling Tamil Nadu
Often people suffered by flood in cauvery river
To save the People from the disaster
He planned to build a Huge Dam in river
Its not easy to build a dam over a river where there is a
flow of 2 lakhs liters of water per second
But Tamizan have formulated a way to build it
When we are standing in sea shore Waves will touch our legs
We can feel that the sand under our feet gets eroded and our legs slowly get buried in sand
Our ancestors has used this formula
They put huge rocks over the Cauvery river
Slowly Rocks buried into the river like our legs
They added more rocks one over the other
They used a sticky clay to stick the rocks with one another
By this they built kallanai to reduce the flow of water
Sar Arthur an english engineer has found this in his research
Amused by this long lasting Dam they named the dam as "THE GREAT ANIKAT"
By this Kallanai dam is famous all over the world
