chola pass
It is very difficult for a name to remain orally unmorphed for 2000 years. I guess this cho la pass represents something else. We need to look for some other compelling evidence.

18 th trip
I think we might be able to conduct such small trips once a month to cover the historical sites around Chennai. It doesn't pinch the purse much.. Say roughly about Rs. 300-400 per head. The next trip thought about was to follow the trail of Dr…

No one responded so far... Seems people are preoccupied.. even for the 18th trip, there is very little response..

who went the farthest?
In the preface to his novel "Raja Thilagam" Sandilyan says that Raja Simha Pallavan built a temple for the Chinese on request. I guess the Pallavars had contacts in the far east, travelled and cultured those countries first.
