THE KUMARIKANDAM
"Culture origin only in Kumari kandam. Tamil civilization existed
in the world even before the sand was born out of stone"
REFERENCES TO KUMARIKANDAM
Kumari Kandam (Lemuria Continent) is one of the lost continent, it is located in the south of present-day India, in the Indian Ocean. In the 20th century, Tamil writers was started to narrate in their works about the submerged continent "Kumari Kandam”. They explained that the Kumari Kandam was ruled by the king pandiyan and there were two Tamil sangams.
The Tamil texts are the main source of the sub-merged landmasses especially those to the south of Kanyakumari. The western extent of this sub-merged landmass is mentioned in Sanskrit texts which describe many submerged cities in this region.
