13 Maritime History of the Pearl Fishery Coast With
MARITIME HISTORY OF THE PEARL FISHERY COAST WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THOOTHUKUDI THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE MANONMANIAM SUNDARANAR UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN HISTORY By Sr. S. DECKLA (Reg. No. 1090) DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY MANONMANIAM SUNDARANAR UNIVERSITY TIRUNELVELI OCTOBER 2004 13 INDEX INTRODUCTION CHAPTER ONE CHAPTER TWO CHAPTER THREE CHAPTER FOUR CHAPTER FIVE CONCLUSION BIBLIOGRAPHY 14 INTRODUCTION Different concepts have been employed by historians in different times to have a comprehensive view of the past. We are familiar with political history, social history, economic history and administrative history. Maritime history is yet another concept, which has been gaining momentum and currency these days. It (maritime history) has become a tool in the hands of several Indian historians who are interested in Indo- Portuguese history. The study of maritime history enables these researchers to come closer to the crucial dynamics of historical process. Maritime history embraces many aspects of history, such as international politics, navigation, oceanic currents, maritime transportation, coastal society, development of ports and port-towns, sea-borne trade and commerce, port-hinterland relations and so on1. As far as India and the Indian Ocean regions are concerned, maritime studies have a great relevance in the exchange of culture, establishment of political power, the dynamics of society, trade and commerce and religion of these areas. The Indian Ocean served not only as a conduit for conducting trade and commerce, but also served and still serves, as an important means of communication. The Indians have carried commodities to several Asian and African countries even before the arrival of the Europeans from India. -

GOVERNMENT OF TAMIL NADU Water Resources Organisation Public Works Department RISK ASSESSMENT AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR FOR CONSTRUCTION OF GROYNES AT PERIYATHALAI IN TIRUCHENDUR TALUK OF THOOTHUKUDI DISTRICT Flat No: 2C, IInd floor, Jai Durga Apartment, 38/2, First Avenue, Ashok Nagar, Chennai-600 083. Tel.: 24710477 / Tel Fax: 044-24714424 E-mail: [email protected] JULY 2014 Public Works Department EIA Studies for Construction of Groyne at Periyathalai, Tiruchendur Taluk, Thoothukudi District 1.0 INTRODUCTION Groins are considered to be one of the best methods to protect eroding coastline. The coast along the state of Tamil Nadu is very dynamic due to various developmental activities along the coast. This causes sea erosion and hence loss of land to the seas. Periyathalai, with geographical coordinates 8°20′11.043″ N and 77°58′43.134″ E is located in Tiruchendur Taluk of Thoothukudi District in Southern Tamilnadu. This area is a sandy beach prone to littoral drift and sever erosion. The boats are anchored at the sea thus leaving them to the impacts of the open seas. In order to protect the coast and provide a safe landing for the boats, Public Works Department of Government of Tamil Nadu is proposing to construct the Groyne at coastal stretch in Periyathalai. 2.0 DISTRICT PROFILE Geographical Locations of the District and Project site Thoothukudi District lies between latitude 8o 45’ Northern and longitude 78o 11’ Eastern with an area of about 4635 Sq.km. The district is bounded on west by Tirunelveli District, on the north by Virudhunagar and Ramanathapuram district, on south by Bay of Bengal and on the east by Bay of Bengal. -
