c35.s1.36

The Pāṇḍya kingdom, as defined by tradition, extended north and south from the Southern Vellāru river (Pudukottai) to Cape Comorin, and east and west from the Coromandel coast to the 'great highway', the Achchhankōvil Pass leading into Southern Kerala, or Travancore; and thus was nearly co-extensive with the existing Districts of Madura and Tinnevelly, with part of Travancore in which Cape Comorin is now included.
