Miscellaneous Notes
This text gives a geographical description of the world in Tamil. It is doubtful whether the english year 1834 which is given here was known as such for the Indian writers at that period. Attanekcattiram may refer to the constellation hasta but this is not corrected by ephemerical calculations. The constellation on that day is dhaniṣṭhā which in Tamil is aviṭṭa
