Tamil Nadu has been considered for its unique art and architecture since the Sangam period. The temples, palaces and other structures found here help in understanding the architectural techniques of the Tamils. The Indian architectural tradition is generally divided into two categories: one, the palaces, palaces, palaces, shops, buildings in cities and dwellings in rural areas related to documents; the other, the temples related to devotion. In modern times, temple-centric studies in Tamil Nadu have mostly been done in the eastern period, but it is recognized that studies on fort structures should not be overlooked. For this reason, this article is written based on the data available in an attempt to fully reveal the history of Devikottai in Nagapattinam district.
