Egyptians knew of the country called “Pand or Punt” (Pandian country or Pantinatu or Puntinatu or Pandinatu around 2600 BC) and their harbour is Ovir or Ouvar in Tamil. They were trading gold, teak and fragrance. This refers to Indus Valley civilization by its ancient name.

The Land of Punt is best known for Queen Hatshepsut’s famous expedition in 1493 BC in the 18th Dyanasty of Egypt, which brought back living trees to Egypt, marking the first known successful attempt at transplanting foreign fauna. Nonetheless, evidence suggests that the Egyptians were trading with the land of Punt as early as the reign of the pharaoh Khufu in the 4th Dynasty (2589–2566 BC).

The Puntites “traded not only in their own produce of incense, ebony and short-horned cattle, but [also] in goods from other African states including gold, ivory and animal skins.” According to the temple reliefs, the Land of Punt was ruled at that time by King Para’hu (Para’masivan) and Queen Ati (or Adh[At]i Parasakhthi).

An ancient Egyptian King is called Pandion. He waged a war with a Greek Pandion and lost the battle. This establishes the fact that Pandians had close matrimonial and trade relationship with Ptolemaic Egypt and Greeks.
Pandians also had trade relationship with Israel Kings David and Solomon around 1000 BC.
Ancient Jews knew Pandian country as “Pand or Punt or Put” around 1000 BC.
Jewish harvest festival months (March-May) are called Sivan – a vine tending festival month (a great God of Devars) and Iyyar – General Harvest month (Iyyanar - God of Devars).

The Pandyan kingdom was an ancient Tamil state in South India of unknown antiquity. Pandyas were one of the three ancient Tamil kingdoms (Chola and Chera being the other two) that ruled the Tamil country from pre-historic times until end of the fifteenth century. They ruled initially from Korkai, a seaport on the southern-most tip of the Indian peninsula, and in later times moved to Madurai. Pandyas entered their golden age under Jatavarman Sundara Pandyan (c. 1251) who expanded their empire into Telugu country and invaded Sri Lanka to conquer the northern half of the island. Their territory included present-day Kerela. They also had extensive trade links with the Southeast Asian maritime empires of Srivijaya and their successors. The Pandyas excelled in both trade and literature. They controlled the pearl fisheries along the South Indian coast, between Sri Lanka and India, which produced some of the finest pearls known in the ancient world. Tradition holds that the legendary Sangam were held in Madurai under their patronage. Some of the Sangam poets became kings of Pandya.

The Land of Punt, also called Poun or Pwenet, or Pwene by the ancient Egyptians, was an old kingdom. A trading partner of Egypt, it was known for producing and exporting gold, aromatic resins, Blackwood, ebony, ivory, and wild animals. The region is known from ancient Egyptian records of trade expeditions to it. At times Punt is referred to as Ta netjer, the "land of the gods". I.e. Dravidam or Thiruvidam or “Holy abode of Gods” or “Pand”ianadu or Tamilnadu. Its inhabitants are called Devars or Gods or Lords. Pandianatu means old country and Pand or Pant means Old. At that point of time Punt or Pand or Pandianadu or Pantinatu or Puntinatu refers to the Indus Valley Civilization and it was long before they moved down to the south (Southern Tip) of India around 1300 BC to 1000 BC because of tsunami (Kadal Kozh) and floods.
