A thin strip on the southwest coastline, sandwiched between the Lakshadweep Sea and the forested Western Ghats that define its border with Tamil Nadu to the east, Kerala covers a mere 1.3% of the countrys total land area, yet its rich resources have long attracted visitors from across the oceans. It is in fact here that the first seafarers set foot on Indian soil. Legend has it that King Solomons ships traded off the Malabar coast between 972 and 932 B.C., followed by the Phoenicians, Romans, Christians, Arabs, and Chinese, all of whom came to stock up on Malabars monkeys, tigers, parrots, timber and, of course, the abundance of spices that were literally worth their weight in gold. Seafarers not only brought trade but built synagogues , churches and mosques in the emerging port cities.
