Marakanam, north of Pondicherry, appears to have been a harbour and is identified with Sopatma of the Periplus and Eyil of Sirupanarruppadai. The mouth of the Vellaru was an Arab ship building port. The place called Agarlu in the Periplus was situated near Tondi on Palk Bay (different from Tondi in Kerala).
