Thevalakkara is a village in the Kollam district of the state of Kerala, India.[1] Formerly known as Quilon, it is one of the 14 districts of Kerala.
Situation
The district has a long coastline, a major Arabian Sea seaport and the inland Ashtamudi Lake while Kollam is also the capital of Kerala's cashew industry. Plains, mountains, lakes, lagoons and backwaters, forests, farmland and rivers make up the topography of the district. The area historically had trading relationships with Phoenicia and Ancient Rome. About 30 percent of the district is covered by Ashtamudi Lake, making it a gateway to the Kerala backwaters. The Thevalakara and Thekkumbagam panchayats established the ancient korekini ("sea pointed inland") port of Tarsish in 1500 BC. The kadappa at Thevalakara is where ship masts (kadappa) were made for centuries.
