Ever since the Keeladi excavations began in 2014, interest in why the past matters has been spreading across various demographics, including school students.

Experimental archaeologist Anbazhagan K., a technical staff at the University of Madras, has been conducting workshops for children and adults to decode the basics of archaeology, along with demonstrations to move away from rote learning.
