Documenting Panchangams (two types - Trikanitham, Vakyam) is important in the existence of ritual and culture of a society. Panchangams are not only helpful in Hindu formal life matters. These are seen to include scientific subjects such as astronomy, mathematics and planetary positions. Based on them, it will be possible to learn how panchangams influence Sri Lankan Tamil culture, Tamil lifestyle and social issues by documenting panchangams through this project.
