No Indian scholar attended the International Seminar on Muziris held in 2007-2008 at Thiruvananthapuram. It is learned that the scholars were not invited for the seminar by P.J.Cherian and his associates. They feared that once reputed scholars in India attend the seminar, the bogus archaeology at Pattanam shall be questioned. This brings to light how excavations have been conducted and interpreted by people with strong church ideology.The papers were presented by P.J.Cherian and his two associates, K.P.Shajan and V.Selvakumar.Two scholars from outside India were present.
