Abstract: Tamil literature holds a distinguished place in the international arena and is renowned for its grammar and literary richness. Unlike many international languages, Tamil possesses a unique identity that is deeply rooted in its cultural-historical past. The Tamils revere their language more than their lives. It encompasses a profound experience of pleasure and devotion closer to their cultural legacy. Humanity is very vital for human life and it is the noble way of life of human beings. The humanitarian traits of the humans of the Sangam period are vividly recorded in Sangam literature. It presents valuable deeds of everyday lives by encompassing politics, beliefs, games, food and heroism. Many scholars have documented the human values of the era and made the readers aware of the compassionate and ethical nature of the Sangam people. Their lives were splendid having Akam (Internal life) which represents personal feelings, love, and personal wishes and Puram (External life) which depicts public life, heroism and valour. The ideas of distinctive features and chastity have been fundamental to the ethical life of Tamils to balance social structure. The life of the Sangam people displays a deep connection with nature, portraying simplicity, compassion and harmonious coexistence with their surroundings. Thus, the study of Sangam literature reveals the values of humanity through the portrayal of the everyday lives and moral standards of the humans of that technology.
