Eyyal burial cave, Rock-cut tomb in Thrissur district, India.

The prehistoric Eyyal burial cave features a circular chamber with an irregular stone bench and a single entry point carved into solid rock.

Archaeological excavations at the Eyyal burial cave revealed Roman coins from 117-123 AD, indicating trade connections during the early centuries.

The burial cave structure reflects the advanced engineering capabilities and funerary customs of ancient megalithic communities in Kerala.

Visitors can reach the burial cave from Cochin International Airport within two hours by taking National Highway 544 for a 74-kilometer journey.

The double-chambered rock formation stands between Wadakkancherry and Kunnamkulam, near the Ariyannur Stone Umbrellas from the same period.
