'''Tammuzh''' was a [[Tamil people|Tamil]] [[Pandyan kingdom|Pandyan king]] in the [[Dravidian people|Dravidian]] cultural realm of ancient South India, who held his capital at [[Kuadam]]. The language and cultural term ''Tamil'' is an anglicised form of the native name ''Tamizhi'' தமிழ் (pronounced {{IPA-ta|tamiɻ|}}).See also [[Legendary early Chola kings]] which shows similarity between early Chola kings and Ur kings list. The Pandyans had trading contacts with [[Ptolemaic Egypt]] and, through Egypt, with Rome by the 1st century CE. The 1st century Greek historian [[Nicolaus of Damascus]] met at [[Damascus]] the embassy sent by an Indian king "named Pandion or, according to others, [[King Porus|Porus]]" to [[Augustus|Caesar Augustus]] around 13 CE. The names of king and his kingdom have likely been conflated in Nicolaus' account.<br />
