Abstract

The ancient Tamils worshipped Seyon in Kurinji, Mayon in Mullai, Indra in Marutham, Varunan in Neithal, Kotravai in Paalai and participated in the worship of the deities with unity. There was a belief in God, but there was no division among the people according to the deity they worshipped.
