Tsunami uncovers ancient ruins

In the wake of the horrific tsunami that tore through India and surrounding countries, at least one cool thing has happened because of it. The receding waters stripped away amazing amount of sand on beaches and have uncovered ancient ruins. The remains may have been once apart of a sea port that flourished there. Granite lions carved out a single piece of granite, and other structures are being studies all along coastlines. Villagers even reported seeing even more structures, including a partial temple out in the shoreline when the water was pulling back before the waves hit. It will be interesting to see what they will discover.
