Abstract

The Sangam people utilized regions encompassing mountains, forests, fields, seas, and sandy areas as foundations for their livelihood in ways suited to their survival. Subsequently, they discovered the three essential elements representing the next stage of life: food, clothing, and shelter. To fulfill the needs of these three elements and to enhance their economy, they employed various production methods including agriculture, hunting, and commerce. References to the livelihood of Sangam people can be found scattered throughout Sangam literary compositions.
