The Hindu reports that "earlier trial excavations at Pattanam by V.Selvakumar and K.P.Shajan of the Centre for Heritage Studies, Trippunithura yielded a large number of rare pottery dating back to the Sangham Period"(The Hindu 01-05-2004 Kochi edition). But the license for excavations was given by ASI to P.K.Gopi, former registrar Centre for Heritage Studies, Thrippunithura. Shri Gopi's name has been conveniently kept way by the new excavators.
