उत्तर
The word ‘Sangam’ means ‘Assembly’. According to early tradition, three Sangams or Assemblies of literary men were held at Madurai, the center of great literary activity in the Tamil Country. It is generally accepted that these assemblies lasted from about the first century BC to the fifth century AD. Many poets, scholars, and bards who gathered there, produced a large volume of excellent Tamil poetry. These literary compositions were collected and compiled into books called the Sangam literature.
