I would be greatly benefited if you could help me with more on the caste structure of this tiny cultural milieu. As far as I know people from various caste denominations coexist here and Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12478740436674628170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258499896042719014.post-66124034888759959132010-09-29T11:59:07.275-04:002010-09-29T11:59:07.275-04:00extremely interesting and looks very much unbiasse...extremely interesting and looks very much unbiassed. i am learning a lot from your esays.pl do continue.Ramanathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17000332521191285890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258499896042719014.post-77379076578509840192010-06-08T19:19:43.104-04:002010-06-08T19:19:43.104-04:00Dr KS Pillai - I will do it one of these days..an ...Dr KS Pillai - I will do it one of these days..an interesting topic certainly together with chattambi swamikal..Maddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18163804773843409980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258499896042719014.post-52543913218240548722010-05-20T09:26:08.103-04:002010-05-20T09:26:08.103-04:00kindly a blog about Sivaraja yogi thaycaud ayyasva...kindly a blog about Sivaraja yogi thaycaud ayyasvaamikal<br />rgds<br />dr.kanam sankara pillai,ponkunnamDr.Kanam Sankar Pillai MS DGOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00341168445525436494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258499896042719014.post-42853013738272362952010-05-09T14:30:43.539-04:002010-05-09T14:30:43.539-04:00thanks PNS..

The problem still is pinning the exact location (still being excavated by the Muziris team).

I also like the allegory of the river and its tributaries being like the many communities that contributed to the region.<br /><br />Quick question- Muziris is Muchiripattanam, right? I have also seen Muziris referred to as Kodangallur/ Cranganore. My guess is that they are close by and thus the confusion.
