Arikamedu

Arikamedu has a long history dating back to 2nd century B.C. It was used as a port for trade with the Romans and Greco-Romans. Wine, Garum sauce and olive oil were imported and the exports must have included textile, beads, semiprecious gems, glass and shell bangles.

But now we could see only the perpendicular walls and a mission house, as the excavated trenches have been filled up. To know more about Arikamedu and its ancient culture you could visit the Pondicherry museum where pottery, beads, shell bangles, ear studs etc are persevered.
