The ports of Kerala have played a very vital role in shaping its history. Perhaps, no other port has played so crucial a role in Kerala and Indian history as the port of 'Muziris' or ‘Cranganore', as it was known in the ancient period, or Cochin or Kochi, as it is known today. Kochi has brought to the shores of Kerala many travellers and traders, saints and savants, sailors and seekers of fortune. It eventually became the gateway for the European conquerors of India. At our Online Talk #QueenOfTheArabianSea, Kochi chronicler Johann Kuruvilla takes a look at what made the port get its epithet, and recounts its maritime tradition from the days of King Solomon and beyond.

The idea of history as neatly categorized events, which occur in a linear, chronological order is being greatly challenged in this day and age. The history passed through official sources, stored in books, is only a fraction of what has occurred. History is best explored through a multifaceted approach that challenges the hegemonic historical narratives and by doing so democratizes the process of documenting history. As learners and observers of history and heritage, it becomes imperative for us to not limit our observations and our methodologies. Perhaps, this is where the independent practice of archiving comes in.
