In Indian mythology of it's majority Hindu population, king 'Rama' of 'Ayodhya' is a prophet, whose history dates back to all possible recorded efforts of humans.
His mention is found in all it's epic references like 'Mahabharata' etc.
His astronomical based dating goes to 9600 years ago, which is 7600 BC approximately:
* Born on 10 Jan 5114 BC (i.e. 7117 years back),
* At the age of 25, he was exiled,
* 'Ravana' (king of Sri Lanka) was killed on 4 Dec 5076 BC,
* Completed exile on 2 Jan 5075 BC,
* Came back 'Ayodhya' ( a kingly state in India) at the age of 39.
His routes of these 14 years exiled journey from 'Ayodhya' to the deep down south and to 'Sri Lanka' ( a country in south of India),needs really to be searched about, as 5 phases of his visits along with several river banks are:
1. Gangetic belt - first phase,
2. Dandak Van - second phase,
3. along Godavari - third phase,
4. along Tungbhadra & Kaveri - fourth phase,
5. on the banks of the Sea in deep down south of India - fifth phase.
......there are still many places-name to his credit but perhaps no researcher has ever tried to take this stupendous task to compile these evidences scattered in Land Revenue Records or through Archaeological data gathering or....,
This could be a big project to be taken with big funding, if some one with some foundation help, wishes so....
