Jallikattu – Kalithokai selection

2 Comments

1. The connection to Jallikattu is not very clear. Please remember cow domestication and rounding up others’ cows for thieving was common in the olden Tamil country. Hence this poem could refer to cow thieves or those who round up wild cows for domestication. Whether bull running as it is done today was existing in those times unchanged is debatable. Let’s take credit only for genuine history and leave hype to the masses

2. Read poems 101 to 104 https://learnsangamtamil.com/%E0%AE%8E%E0%AE%9F%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%9F%E0%AF%81%E0%AE%A4%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%A4%E0%AF%8A%E0%AE%95%E0%AF%88-%E0%AE%95%E0%AE%B2%E0%AE%BF%E0%AE%A4%E0%AF%8D%E0%AE%A4%E0%AF%8A%E0%AE%95%E0%AF%88-%E0%AE%AE-2/
