One of the best documentaries I've seen on Kumari Kandam and the Indus Valley Civilization
It is in five parts--definitely worth it to watch all five!
Kumari Kandam
Video Excerpt: Ancient India and World (History Channel)
Fascinating stuff about Kumari Kandam as well as other sunken sites.
This one suggests aliens had something to do with the lost civilizations.

This link is in the Indus Valley section above, but I wanted it here as well
because some of the info on Kumari Kandam
contradicts info in the above History Channel documentary
