Abstract

From time to time some conceptualizations based on the collective unconscious of man have remained unchanged in the minds of human beings. Thus, the concept of chastity has been emphasized to the woman through mythology from the Sangam age to the present day. Accordingly, this study is based on the idea that the myths of Arundhati and Amirtham, which originated during the Sangam Maruviya period after the Sangam age, emphasize the chastity of a woman through the myths of Arundhati and Amirtham.
