The Portuguese built a church for the believers of the surrounding area and dedicated it to Our Lady. Christians in the area gathered together for worship at this church. During the Mysorean invasion of Kerala in the 18th century, Tipu Sultan (the ruler of Mysore was camped near River Chalakkudy in order to attack parts of Travancore. He destroyed most of the Christian and Hindu places of worship. The local people gathered together in the Church and prayed to Our Lady for their help. At that time, there was a mist (snow) spread around the church and Tipu and his military could not see the church and the surrounding areas. They thought it was part of the Arabian Sea. And there was also a huge flood in River Periyar and Tipu lost a large part of his military and hence was forced to return to Mysore. It was this miracle that turned Our Lady’s name to Manjumatha (Our Lady of Snow). The feast is conducted annually in remembrance of the event. Local Around 5,000 RELEVANCE- NO.

Chapter I Tsunami
Executive summary In the morning hours of 26 December, 2004, huge seismic sea waves triggered by massive undersea earthquake in the Indian Ocean caused the death of many thousands of people, leaving tens of thousands homeless in India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Maldives. Fishermen, tourists and people living on the coast were unprepared for the waves that rose upto 6 meters high throughout the Indian Ocean, Andaman Sea and Arabian Sea. The earthquake, had its epicenter 257 km south southwest of Banda Aceh in Sumatra, Indonesia. This was the most powerful earthquake experienced in the region during the last 40 years. 176 persons were killed in Kerala as tsunami waves rising over the Arabian Sea invaded the land, wreaking havoc and destruction in the coastal fishing hamlets in the southern districts of the state. This report presents the impact of tsunami on natural eco systems. The marine environment in the southwest coast between Thottapally and Muttam has been successfully affected as a result of the impact of Tsunami , as reflected by the following findings : The concentration of nutrients has been reduced at all transects just after tsunami. However, values gradually picked up in the period from January to May 2005. Primary productivity had been drastically reduced in the wake of tsunami, especially near Vizhinjam and Kolachel. This also has improved considerably evident from the samples collected in May 2005. There was a lowering of plankton species diversity just after tsunami period, in January 2005. The fish catch has been reduced subsequent to tsunami. This has shown considerable improvement now, as reported by the fishermen from that area.

At the same time Kerala has had the distinction of bring an independent geographical and political entity from very early days. Its unique geographical position and peculiar physical features have invested Kerala with a distinct individuality.The land of Kerala comprises the narrow coastal strip bounded by the Western Ghats on the east and the Arabian Sea on the west in the southern part of the Indian Peninsula.Paradoxical as it might seem, this geographical position has helped to ensure, to some extent, its political and cultural isolation from the rest of the country and also facilitated its extensive and active contacts with the countries of the outside world.

KERALA in Indiaandyoucanimagine Howharditwillbetoleave Before Youeven Gethere
© Lonely Planet Publications 960 KERALA KERALA Kerala Kerala is where India slips down into second gear, stops to smell the roses and always talks to strangers. A strip of land between the Arabian Sea and the Western Ghats, its perfect climate flirts unabashedly with the fertile soil, and everything glows. An easy-going and successful so- cialist state, Kerala has a liberal hospitality that stands out as its most laudable achievement. The backwaters that meander through Kerala are the emerald jewel in South India’s crown. Here, spindly networks of rivers, canals and lagoons nourish a seemingly infinite number of rice paddies and coconut groves, while sleek houseboats cruise the water highways from one bucolic village to another. Along the coast, slices of perfect, sandy beach beckon the sun-worshipping crowd, and far inland the mountainous Ghats are covered in vast planta- tions of spices and tea. Exotic wildlife also thrives in the hills, for those who need more than just the smell of cardamom growing to get their juices flowing. This flourishing land isn’t good at keeping its secret: adventurers and traders have been in on it for years. The serene Fort Cochin pays homage to its colonial past, each building whispering a tale of Chinese visitors, Portuguese traders, Jewish settlers, Syrian Christians and Muslim mer- chants. Yet even with its colonial distractions, Kerala manages to cling to its vibrant traditions: Kathakali – a blend of religious play and dance; kalarippayat – a gravity-defying martial art; and theyyam – a trance-induced ritual. Mixed with some of the most tastebud-tingling cuisine in India and you can imagine how hard it will be to leave before you even get here.

Indian Archaeology 1975-76 a Review
INDIAN ARCHAEOLOGY 1975-76 —A REVIEW EDITED BY B. K. THAPAR Director General Archaeological Survey of India ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF INDIA GOVERNMENT OF INDIA NEW DELHI 1979 Cover; The shrine of Khwaja Abu Nasar Parsa, Balkh, Afghanistan 1979 ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF INDIA GOVERNMENT OF INDIA Price : Rs. 60-00 PRINTED AT NABA MUDRAN PRIVATE LTD., CALCUTTA, 700004 PREFACE The present issue of the Review, in its content, follows the pattern of its predecessors, viz. incorporating material submitted by the various agencies engaged in archaeological work in the country, to whom I am beholden for their cooperation. This is the third issue to be brought out during the year 1979, and if everything goes well, the issue for 1976-77, which is already in the press, may come out within a couple of months. I heartily thank my colleagues in the Survey who have helped me in editing and seeing the volume through the press, as also Messers Naba Mudran Private Ltd., Calcutta, for bringing out these issues within such a short period. Readers would recall that as a result of the recommendations of a Committee, set up by one of the Sections of the Conference on Asian Archaeology, held in New Delhi in December 1961, to consider the problem of terminology in Indian prehistory, especially relating to the various hunting and food gathering stages, the terms Early, Middle and Late Stone Ages were accepted to be used in the subsequent issues of the Review (commencing from 1961-62). Since then considerable field-work in prehistoric and Quaternary studies has been done in India, and the position has appreciably changed: a blade-and-burin industry, recalling the Upper Palaeolithic of Europe has been identified in various regions of India, in stratigraphical horizons underlying the deposits belonging to the so-called Late Stone Age; and some similarities between the post Acheulian flake industries of the so-called Indian Middle Stone Age and those of the Middle Palaeolithic of Europe have been recognized.
