The ancient Tamil people made their living on the basis of the land. The life of the Tamils of the Sangam age is divided into two parts, Akam (Love) and Puram (Social). Akam refers to the events of love life. The early man began to live in groups to protect himself from destruction. It is this system of collective life that later led to the formation of the ethnic society.
