Is there any archaeological evidence to establish the antiquity of the Shri Rama Janmabhoomi site?
 

Yes. In 1975-80, the Archaeological Survey of India, under the leadership of Prof B B Lal, took up extensive excavations, in different parts of India, to establish the various sites mentioned in Ramayan. Similar excavations were undertaken in Ayodhya, including in two places around the Babri structure. The team was able to establish that the Shri Rama Janmabhoomi site was occupied prior to 7th century BC.
