Jhukhaulya
The ruins of ancient Jhukhaulya rest at the end of the Tulampta Peninsula on the western shore of Lake Vimala. Jhukhaulya was founded in the late fourth millennium before Salmakhamer as the capital of the Neibhu-Yona Kingdom. It was abandoned during the Surizhah Kingdom and restored as capital during the Jatha-Nebir Kingdom, the last of the eleven Kalaman kingdoms. The ruins were known since antiquity, but the associated necropolises were not discovered until modern times. In keeping with ancient Kalaman practice, the burial site of the Kings of Kalama was held in a separate location, possibly from public knowledge, and venerated as sacred, from the site of the capital city.
Necropolises of Jhukhaulya
The necropolis of the Jatha-Nebir Kingdom, resting on the steep heights of Goshand Island on Lake Vimala was known since antiquity and surveys by archeologers have determined that it is entirely looted, although this is disputed. The once lavish decoration of the tombs is nearly all faded. In 2697, Johaulian archeologers confirmed the discovery of the Necropolis of the Surizhah Kingdom in the forest of the Tulampta Peninsula. The site is now protected and entry forbidden without authorization. Most of the artifacts retrieved rest in the Tassan Museum of Kalaman Antiquities. The site is overgrown with trees and vegetation and is not readily accessible.
