Abstract
Among the languages of the world, Tamil is hailed as the supreme classical language. Tamil is an ancient, classical, and prosperous language. Literature is one factor that enriches the language. In the Sangam society, which was centred on human life, honour for men and chastity for women became ornaments. People lived a cultured life where they lived and let others live. They accepted married life in the community wholeheartedly. Hospitality was prized as the chief virtue. The author names of many hymns are unknown in the Sangam literature, ‘Ettuthogai’, which is such a cultural treasury and primary literature. This research explores the richness of cultural richness, lifestyles, and beliefs found in the songs of anonymous poets.
