Muziris was an ancient seaport and urban center in south western India on the river Periyar that existed from around the beginning of the Christian era to the 1300s. Muziris is mentioned in the great classical Tamil Sangha literature and a number of European historical sources. Roman Ships anchored out in the sea and transported their goods in small boats guided by local pilots throughthe canals to Muzhiri Pattanam(Pattanam). From centuries in the past until the 14th, the city was well known to the Arab and especially the Roman sailors who conducted trade with Malabar.
