PONNANI PEPPER PROJECT History Ponnani Is Popularly Known As “The Mecca of Kerala”
PONNANI PEPPER PROJECT HISTORY Ponnani is popularly known as “the Mecca of Kerala”. As an ancient harbour city, it was a major trading hub in the Malabar region, the northernmost end of the state. There are many tales that try to explain how the place got its name. According to one, the prominent Brahmin family of Azhvancherry Thambrakkal once held sway over the land. During their heydays, they offered ponnu aana [elephants made of gold] to the temples, and this gave the land the name “Ponnani”. According to another, due to trade, ponnu [gold] from the Arab lands reached India for the first time at this place, and thus caused it to be named “Ponnani”. It is believed that a place that is referred to as “Tyndis” in the Greek book titled Periplus of the Erythraean Sea is Ponnani. However historians have not been able to establish the exact location of Tyndis beyond doubt. Nor has any archaeological evidence been recovered to confirm this belief. Politically too, Ponnani had great importance in the past. The Zamorins (rulers of Calicut) considered Ponnani as their second headquarters. When Tipu Sultan invaded Kerala in 1766, Ponnani was annexed to the Mysore kingdom. Later when the British colonized the land, Ponnani came under the Bombay Province for a brief interval of time. Still later, it was annexed Malabar and was considered part of the Madras Province for one-and-a-half centuries. Until 1861, Ponnani was the headquarters of Koottanad taluk, and with the formation of the state of Kerala in 1956, it became a taluk in Palakkad district. -
College Report 2018-19
COLLEGE REPORT 2018-19 “The Lord is the strength of His people ;He is the saving refuge of His anointed” Ps 28:8 This year as God’s own country was topsy turvy with the severe floods during the monsoon season we all had a new experience to believe the saying “Together we are stronger.” The rich tradition, that St .Mary’s proud of ,is to a great extent the product of the dedicated service of the staff of this institution. But every year she is a sad witness to the retirement of her staff who have been a part and parcel of this college for many years.This year too we are bidding farewell to one of our distinguished faculty Dr. Josephine Joseph , Head of the Department of English, a person of vision. With her efficiency in teaching and administrative skills she has contributed immensely for the growth of this institution. Her style of working has proved that academic and administrative functioning can be made effective through informal and personal interaction rather than being formal. The reaccreditation of the College with A grade twice by NAAC during her tenure as IQAC Coordinator is noteworthy. She was awarded with Sadguru Award in 2014 by University of Calicut. Being a person of indomitable spirit , a true teacher, an able administrator and mentor for co faculty and students her retirement is a great loss to the St. Marian Community. On this occasion, let me accord deep sense of gratitude and indebtedness of myself and CMC Management for her sincere commitment. Marian Community whole heartedly acknowledge her selfless service towards upliftment of this institution . -

Jayson Kerala Forest Research Institute Peechi- 680 653, Kerala, India October 2002 KFRI Research Report No. 244 ECOLOGY OF WETLAND BIRDS IN THE KOLE LANDS OF KERALA (FINAL REPORT OF THE RESEARCH PROJECT KFRI/303/98) E. A. Jayson Division of Wildlife Biology Kerala Forest Research Institute Peechi- 680 653, Kerala, India October 2002 1. INTRODUCTION Wetlands are complex ecosystems with many interacting organisms. Wetlands are defined as areas of marsh, ponds, swamps, whether natural or artificial, permanent or temporary, with water that is static or flowing, fresh, brackish or salt, including that of marine water the depth of which at low tide does not exceed six meters (IUCN, 1971). Wetlands are extremely important throughout the world for wildlife protection, recreation, pollution and sediment control, flood prevention and food production. Cowardin et al. (1979) define wetlands as ‘the lands transitional between terrestrial and aquatic system where the water table is usually at or near the surface or the land is covered by shallow water. Wetlands must have one or more of the three attributes: 1) at least periodically, the land supports predominantly hydrophytes, 2) the substrate is predominantly undrained hydric soil and 3) the substrate is nonsoil and is saturated with water or covered by shallow water at some time during the growing season of each year. Although considerable amount of research on wetlands has been done in India, most of the information has come from Keoladio, Point Calimere, Chilka Lake and the Sunderbans or from specific regions such as Gujarat and Ladakh (Wolstencroft et al., 1989). -
