Abstract

In Sangam literature, the most important of the women is ‘Thalaivi’. She is known to be a co-worker with the ‘Thalaivan’ in a life of love and a person who excels in the life of chastity. The ‘Sevilithai’ and the ‘Natrai’ are overjoyed to know that her daughter is excelling in the family life. She is the one who stands and guides the leader in ‘kalavu’ and chastity as her best friend. The Sangam literature speaks a lot about this.
