Answers
The Cholas, Pandyas and Cheras
South of the Deccan plateau and south of the Satavahana kingdom, three kingdoms arose. These were the Cholas (whose centre was in the area of Tanjore, south of Madras), the Pandyas (whose centre was at Madurai), and the Keralas or Cheras (along the Malabar coast, now part of Kerala). The south-east region came to be the land of the Tamils, because Tamil was the language spoken there. Our knowledge of these three South Indian kingdoms, the Cheras, the Cholas and the Pandyas, is based on literature called the 'Sangam literature'.
Sangam Literature
It was said that many, many centuries ago, three assemblies were held; the third at the town of Madurai. All the poets and bards and wandering minstrels of the south gathered together and composed poems. At the later gatherings, two thousand poems were collected into eight books. These are the poems we can read today and which form the Sangam literature. They are written in Tamil. The poets moved from place to place composing poems for the chiefs of the tribes. These poems describe the life of the chiefs and of the common people in South India. Some of these descriptions agree with the material remains of the megalithic culture.
