In Ramayana, one of the great epics of India, also we can find the name of Manamelkudi. It is telling that Lord Rama has tried to cross over the Bay of Bengal so as to reach Sri Lanka from India from three points along the southeastern fringe of the Indian coast. Firstly, he is said to have tried to cross from Vedaranniyam which is mythologically called as `Kodiyakkarai', secondly from Manamelkudi and finally crossed over to Sri Lanka from Rameswaram Island.
