While Scholars of the West and some Indians are prepared to accept Homer’s Iliad and Odysseus, the City of Troy, the same courtesy is not extended to Indian Sources,Puranas and Tamil Litrature.
Evidence pointing the existence of Kumari Kandam , a Super continent abounds in Tamil Literature .
Sanskrit texts allude to this.
The Sankalpa of Hindus say, Bharathak Kande’ not Kumarik Kande.
That there was a very rich culture in existence , south of Vindyas and that they had close relationship with Sanatana Dharma is evident.
Mahabharata quotes a list of Tamil Kings who attended Draupadi’s Swayamvara.
The Tamil kings are named in the marriage ceremony of Lord Rama.
In Damayanti’s Swayamvara, the Tamil Kings are named.
Tamil literature , especially Silappathikaram, Manimekalai has copious references to Kumari Kandam.
Combining both Sanskrit and Tamil Histories together, research has been done and it proves the existence of Kumari Kandam.
Maps of India at different ancient periods are as followed.
16,000 BCE:- The sea level rose from – 130 meters to -120 meters (10 meters in the 3500 years since 19,500 BCE). The Central Indian Ridge (CIR) – Sumatra – Diffuse plate boundary of Indian plate falls through Kumari Kandam. It is a region with anomalous seismic activity and is part of the Chagos Anomalous Seismicity Region. Due to this inter-plate deformation, the surface elevation in Kumari Kandam region dropped. As a result to the combined effect of the sea level rise and the surface elevation fall, Kumari Kandam started submerging.
