In cities like Chennai, 'compound walls' are a major part of residential life. Climbing them is often seen as a sign of a 'vandu' (mischievous kid). Scaling walls is a romantic trope where the hero climbs the heroine's house wall to talk to her at night. In villages, walls are often made of mud or stones. Climbing them requires different techniques and is common during local festivals or games. Fort walls (Madil) were massive. 'Madil-eruthal' was a specific military tactic mentioned in Sangam literature.
