Mani's daughter laughed when he brought home pottery shards from Keeladi. She'd dismissed his volunteer work as dusty, pointless. But watching him piece together fragments of ancient Tamil civilization, something shifted in her. Each careful reconstruction told stories their ancestors whispered across millennia.
