The history of the Tamils of South India could be traced as early as B.C.1250, a period prior to the submergence of a part of the Tamil country with Kumarikkandam around B.C.650 in an Under-Sea Avalanche. Much is not known of the Literary works of the period prior to B.C.625 being the period of First Thamil Sangam (B.C.1250-625), as many Compositions of this period were lost to us in this sea disaster.
