The Legacy of Southist Syrian Christians: Contributions of Knanaya Community to Kerala in a Historical Perspective

The book, The Legacy of Southist Syrian Christians: Contributions of Knanaya Community to Kerala in a Historical Perspective, was written to educate the youth and the readers about the Knanaya Catholic community and what great contributions this minority community has made for the socioeconomic advancement of Kerala, a southern state in the Indian subcontinent. The book gives a short historical description of how the community migrated from the Middle East to Kerala in the fourth century and how the community thrived for seventeen centuries in India. The Southist Syrian Christians survived many attacks on their mere existence itself, yet the community successfully kept their identity and is still flourishing all over the world now.
