Question

10 Lines on Sangam literature

Answer 1

Here is the answer

Sangam literature is one of the main sources used for documenting the early history of the ancient Tamil country.
The ancient Sangam poems mention numerous kings and princes, the existence of some of whom have been confirmed through archaeological evidence
Sangam literature is still the main source for the early Cholas, the Pandyas and the Cheras.
Sangam was the ancient academy, which enabled Tamil poets and authors to gather periodically to publish their work.
The Sangam met periodically in the city of Madurai in South India under the patronage of the Pandya kings. The current estimate is that the Sangam period lasted between 400 BCE until 300 CE.
The earliest mention of the Sangam is to be found in the 8th century commentary on the Irayanar Agapporul.
It mentions three Sangams lasting, at long intervals, for a total of 9990 years.
Sangam literature comprises some of the oldest extant Tamil literature, and deals with love, war, governance, trade and bereavement.
Much of the Tamil literature belonging to the Sangam period has been lost.
The literature currently available from this period is perhaps just a fraction of the material produced during this period.
