India During Ramayana Period,. The Forty Kings mentioned before Karikala are not found to be recorded. Yet references are found in the Ithihasa and Puranas about the Pandyas. My inference is that Pandya Kingdom at Then Madurai then, was swallowed by a Tsunami and records might have been lost. One surviving record is that Ravana signed a Peace Treaty with a Pandya King. Please read my Post on this.
