Many times unexpected things are found during excavation of old buildings. Something similar happened in Minnesota, America. Excavation of a former high school was going on, so that a new construction could be built in its place. The workers were busy working, when such a thing came out from inside that everyone was stunned. You will be surprised to know that this thing has also been used in the construction of Ayodhya Ram temple, so that if needed after years, it can be shown to the world as evidence.
According to the New York Post report, when workers were demolishing pillars and doors in the school, a time capsule of 1920 was found under the debris. It was suppressed when this school was built decades ago. When it was opened, inside were the roster of the school’s teachers and administrators, the high school magnet, the high school newspaper, three local newspapers, and many important documents. The school management said, we are thrilled to see that this has been achieved in the foundation of the school. This will tell us a lot about the community and the students studying here.
What exactly is a time capsule?
Now you must be wondering what is a time capsule? Why is it buried in the foundation of the building? A time capsule is a container made of special material, in which many documents are kept. It is able to withstand all types of weather and never gets spoiled. It is said that it remains unharmed for thousands of years. Neither does it rot, nor can it be burnt by fire. That is why it is mostly buried under buildings of historical importance. On November 30, 2017, a time capsule about 400 years old was found in Burgos, Spain. It was in the form of a statue of Jesus Christ. The time capsule found in Minnesota was also intact after so many days. He was not harmed.
Where in India was the time capsule installed?
You will be surprised to know that in India too, time capsules have been installed under many buildings. There is talk of a time capsule being pressed under the grand Shri Ram temple in Ayodhya. It has also been kept in IIT College and Agricultural University of Red Fort, Kanpur. This is done so that if there is any dispute regarding the temple or any building in future, it can be presented as evidence. This will be such an evidence which will have no weight.
