Kumari Kandam?
Kumari Kandam (Tamil: குமரிக்கண்டம்) refers to a lost continent with an ancient Tamil civilization, located south of present-day India in the Indian Ocean. Alternative name and spellings include Kumarikkandam and Kumari Nadu
In the 19th century, a section of the European and American scholars speculated the existence of a submerged continent called Lemuria, to explain geological and other similarities between Africa, Australia, India and Madagascar. A section of Tamil revivalists adapted this theory, connecting it to the Pandyan legends of lands lost to the ocean, as described in ancient Tamil literature. According to these writers, an ancient Tamil civilization existed on Lemuria, before it was lost to the sea in a catastrophe.
