Talk:Nambiar (Nayar subcaste)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nambiars are predominantly there in North Kerala and not South as stated in the page. Most of the Nair families in Kasargod (Nileshwar, Kanhangad, Payyanur, Chervathur, and Eastern sides to it) and Kannur (Payyanur included, Taliparamba, Tellicherry etc) are Nambiars.
[edit] Kindly donot confuse the occupations of the Malabar-nayar-nambiars and Ambalavasi-nambiars of Palakkad.Though a notable exception of this phenomenon would be the Charalil(ചരലില്) Tharavadu(തറവാട്) in Ottapalam taluk of Palakkad who are Nair-Nambiar's. However this is due to early migration from the northern malabar.
I have noticed that the earlier referenced and anthropologically fidel article stating the occupation of Malabar-nair-nambiars have been replaced with both ambalavasi and nair sect pages showing ambalavasi professions !!!!!. Since this is untrue i have reverted to the older version. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.99.165.172 (talk) 19:54, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
