Shell, 'Gomed' found during excavation
Ayodhya
March 13.
On the second day of excavation of the disputed site here, archaeologists came across a shell and a `basal' (Gomed, a precious stone) and a few brick marks of the 1920s.
After hours of slow scalping in 4x4 metre trenches just opposite the make-shift temple, about 22 labourers, under the supervision of the Archaeological Survey of India team, touched the floor of the demolished mosque at a depth of about four to five inches, sources said.
"The items have little relevance to the exercise aimed at finding whether a temple existed beneath the disputed structure," the sources said.
